This is how the clover turned out . Should of did half stitch instead of whole stich. The stem didn't get attached plus it bunches up in the center. What a mess! I will keep it to show where I came from . I just jumped in when I didn't know what I was doing. Will tackle this another day and will tackle it slooooooowly. Thanks for looking. Duck (Donald)

Still not a bad try. Hard to really know with the fuzzy picture. If you do
decide to try again and do it in half stitch, I would do the tight inner
curves as cloth stitch and the outer big curves in half stitch. Also make
sure there is a separate pair for the outer edge to help keep the stability
of the curve. Otherwise doing HS on the curve only makes for an unstable
and wonky edge. Just some things to think about on your next try.
