update on bag

Made a little bit of progress on my shopping bag. I think this stitch is called fly stitch, which, apart from leaves, could also be used for feathery bird's wings. I have used 3 strands of anchor embroidery floss.

Nowhere finished yet. But since this photo I have sewn some flowers on in bright blue and orange.
 

We had a lovely few sunny days but overnight it suddenly went cold and windy...so back to normal now :0( Still it was enjoyable whilst it lasted and the birdies were very chirpy and spring like!
