11. Stem-stitch along one side of all leaves and stem patterns with green pearle cotton thread.
12. Stem-stitch pattern on vase accent with six strands orange embroidery floss.
Flowers and Beading
See section 6. Because it's difficult to quilt around existing embellishments, you'll add the dimensional flowers and beading to the panels once the project has been quilted.
