This morning I mesured and cut the excess fabric away, serged the edges on the cross stitched piece, as well as the extra fabric.
The purple basting thread is where the edges should line up with the foamcore board the piece will be mounted on before framing.
These are the leftovers. Hope I can find something small to stitch on at least the larger piece.

I really like your version, Judy.
Sara says
Very pretty! You did a great job adding filler that was just right – not too little and not too much.
Roberta Miglin says
I see that small piece used for testing vines or other designs so you know if you like stitching them. And tests for changing the designs some in future projects.

The small piece would be perfect for a bookmark. I love the changes you made, especially the little flower! So cute!
Judy M. says
That small piece of linen could make a bookmark.
