Block prints on fabric

When I went on a textile workshop in October, I used a couple of my floral printing blocks on fabric as well as the beetle image suggested by the tutor.  My floral images didn't really lend themselves to all the colourful embellishment techniques taught on the day.  I had thought to abandon them, but I have since added some simple embroidery stitches which makes them suitable for other projects.
