Here's the motif/quilt square design in stitchery. I lined things up, because the stitching seemed to need a more formal arrangement. It is stitched in Perle cotton and matte silk. I think a repeat would make a good border. This will be inset in a bigger piece.
On both pieces, I'm trying to decide if they need more stitching. Opinions?

I love all the stitching you have on the bottom piece. I sort of like it with some areas not stitched as it gives the eye a place to rest and then move on to something with more texture. It almost seems like it needs a focal area though. JMO!
Your stitching is beautiful! I especially like the green needlelace. What about adding some tiny white pearls? It seems to say sea to me so I thought of pearls.
The green needlelace stitching is beautiful. I love all of it and agree with Gina. Tiny white pearls would look great. Lise
Both are nice. Absolutely love the second one. The pink and green work lovely together! I think it looks great just the way you have it.
I like them as they are. I do think of the sea (fish scales) when I look at the 2nd one.
Just gorgeous Sandy - you manage to do such a great variety of hand stitching, one way and another. I do envy you!
