Leaves and a bow

Tonight I filled in the holly leaves and the bow. Janet called for using J.L. Walsh silk for the holly and Flair for the bow. I did not have any of the colors called for and so I substituted from my stash. I used Vineyard Silks for the leaves and Neon Rays Plus for the bow. I also changed the stitches she called for. I did a stem stitch for the vein and tent stitched the rest of the leaves. The bow is also done in a tent stitch, and then I did put the X on the center for the knot.
