Stars: Filling in the Trellis and Placing the Boxes and Triangles

I got more done on Deborah Kerr's block last night than I thought I would.  I layered two more trellises on top of the original black one, using a slightly lighter thread and a different color each time.  The end result is raised and puffy, like jewelry almost.  It's a cool effect I'd like to use sometime on a canvas.

Then I started putting in the corner boxes so I'd see where the triangles should go.  The boxes have layers upon layers but the triangles are pretty straightforward, so I might have both done tonight.  I've certainly skipped around a lot on this block, doing things out of the order Tony recommends, just to help me get everything right.  So far, so good.

In other news, Thistle Threads mentioned using some of their great embroidery photos to make name tags, luggage tags and smart phone cases.  Isn't that a great idea?
