Portuguese Border Stitch

This weeks TAST 2012 stitch was portuguese border stitch which didn't really strike me in the beginning but all of a sudden a creative idea hit me - so here it is. First I had only the flower with pot, that's the picture in StitchinFingers . Since it was only Wednesday I decided to add some more details and this is what I ended up with:


This is a stitch that is rather 3D looking or raised. It was really fun to do.
