cherries

I just started yet an other project! :)
A friend is doing a swap called "cherry red" and I have this pattern in my stuff for a while, and I was looking for an excuse to begin just one more project...

I am not sur I'll do it all like on the original project.. I may simplify it. There are two lines of cherry blossom (the whitish parts on the pic) and I think I'll write "welcome" instead of the upper garland of flowers...
I spent lots of time working on it yesterday and today, but I think that's the only way for me to finish projects, do them intensively!!
I have a deadline for this so hopefully I'll finish it..

Edited to add what it looks like tonight as I am moving on to other activities..
