Really Finished the Epergne

I spent the last couple of hours putting in the embroidery touches on the fruits on the epergne. Most of these are remarkably subtle but of course the watermelon seeds are not. I like this watermelon. I like the fabrics and the colors and even the texture of the watermelon since it has that white rim around the fruit that has a fold lifting it slightly above the "fruit". I am not as crazy about the pineapple. The original instructions do not call for any embroidery but I think it needs some. I added a few touches to the block including the handles on the epergne but I think I will add some stem stiching to put in segments on the pineapple.
