embroidered collar

It's been slow to start, but I finally began sewing the girl's Easter dresses last night and stayed up way too late embroidering the collars.  After sketching out a design, stitched a sample, and after a few tweaks drew the design on the collar pieces.  I used a stem stitch, french knot, lazy daisy, and back-stitch.

Obviously, there is much work to do, but if these dresses turn out as I envision, Ruby and Cora will look absolutely delicious on Easter.  Do you love to embroider?  I find it very therapeutic!
