Filling in the Spaces

I didn't have much time to stitch yesterday, but I did get a little done on Mary Ann. The side borders have been extended--why do borders seem to take more time than they should?--and I started the first of the small motifs that will fill the space around the Big Pot of Flowers.

 There will be flowers and fruit bowls at the top, trees at the bottom, and more critters amongst the trees. All is very symmetrical and balanced, all very Georgian. So, on with the day!
