WIPW - Ice Cream Please!

I don't know how I have managed to make any progress at all for my Work In Progress Wednesday. It has been SWELTERINGLY hot in Tokyo. However, I have had a good week and completed the vanilla and lavender ice cream block of

Crazy for Crazy

The Dorset button as well as the one from my stash are on. So are the beads and a number of embroidered areas.
Have a look:

 I have used SSS#67 Fishbone Stitch for some leaves on a Stem Stitch stem.

I used the SSS#69 Point Russe Stitch but added more legs, then used needle weaving in two different threads. It made a nice fan. At the bottom arch I added a cut stone that was so glaring I just had to calm it down with some Shisha Stitch.

I have also made two butterflies out of Tripple Chain and Bullion Knot Stitch.

Before I start a new crazy quilt block, I will have to make a birthday card and thought I would use the pattern and instructions from Sachiko Morimoto's book on 'Drawing herbs and flowers with Stumpwork' (that translation of the title is mine).


I don't know how much progress there will be to report next week.
My friend CrazyQstitcher has worked all the stitches in the book, have a look at her lavender.
