White snowdrop sample

Same design, slightly different approach.  This time, I want to see how it works in white-on-white.  I'll be using the same cut-out-and-apply technique so it's not proper whitework, of course, but I'm interested to see how convincing - or otherwise! - it is.

So starting out the same as before, tracing the design onto silver organza with a light blue ultra-fine Sharpie pen:


The traced design taken off the drawn image that was beneath it in the first photo:


Painted white, and still on the paper:


Off the paper, onto a frame and ready to stitch:


It's a bit faint, but it's still easy enough to see, so I shouldn't struggle to stitch over the lines.
