Mystery #3 - "Spring Reflections" is the second in the Reflection series and is the same as the others in the series, but the colors and stitches are entirely different. The colors are beautiful shades of peach and green using various silks, metallics and beads.

By the way, Lara has finished her version.  The photo above is hers.  It isn't quite as the instructions read.  She used the wrong thread in a corner, decided she liked it that way, and did them all in a slighter darker thread than intended.
