Chambray top with cross-stitch poppies. I could just get the neck edging and the poppies to fit in my 200mm square hoop. I added the facing in the hoop as well. Hope you like it!

I like the way that you have extended the design to include decorative stitching around the neckline. Looks great.

Very nice. I might have to try something like this. I have lots of neckline embroidery designs. Hmm, incorporate the facing too. Great idea.

Thanks - it made it very easy! I've just uploaded better pictures. It was horrible weather yesterday and the lighting was really bad.
