Ramblings:
I got this from Connie! (Connie Gee Stitches). This was start 2/6 during my birthday month. :) These videos are why I chose to change the flowers. And since Connie also gifted me a skein of Precious Star (Mo's Sale), I wanted to be sure to use it in this piece. :)
Project Notes:
✘ Fabric is 32-count Permin linen in Star Sapphire from Wichelt
✘ Large flowers are in GA Garden Gate, GA Shutter Green, & GA Sunflower
✘ Shortened large flower at the top left, to make it fit (although I've omitted the border)
✘ Omitted small flower in top right, added a bee trail
✘ Bee details were stitched with one strand
✘ Top goat is in GA Portabella & GA Brown Bear
✘ Omitted bottom of left lower sunflower
✘ Added a stitch here and there to connect stems

Section of Oops?
✘ Forgot to leave a space for a flower in the picnic basket, stitched over it
✘ Goat on the bottom is a row short, tried to compensate with the smaller flowers around there
✘ One of the larger leaves aren't positioned as charted
✘ Hill is a row taller than charted, widened it by a column on each side
