1st Embroidery Motif Complete!

So I did decide to fill in the flowers and not leave them plain, the gold around the leaves was annoying to do, and I think the blue flower looks more "normal" now that its been filled.  As I've previously stated I'm not an embroidery expert, I have very very basic knowledge, But I think its a good start for a first try!

Embroidery: Not a good idea when you're tired- For obvious reasons.

So I started this at 12am and its now 4am, I dont usually embroider (avid embroiderers will notice lol) however I've always wanted to do my own embroidered prayer mat (Seccade)  So this was my first motif (one of many =[ )  and as you can see its unfinished, I still need to do the other gold bits around the leaves.  And the photo really does this no justice.  It looks like I've joined the pink in the middle underneath the bead but I haven't, and I'm not sure if I should shade in the flowers or not...Anyway I'll give this some thought tomorrow.  Goodnight!!
