I had one of those mornings when nothing looks right - feeling doubtful about the design I tried some more variations, see photo 2.
From left to right -a) the circle segments I did a few days ago b) similar but with fewer lines c) trying close parallel lines (like the markings on an astrolabe) d) change of tack - would it look better with long straight lines as a contrast to the swirling background? e and f) variations of d.

I like the swirls better than the straight lines .They echo the swirls below but are more precise.
I love your stitched sample and agree with Ferinn - the swirls are beautifully sinuous and echo the design.
You are really making progress with all your ideas, I stand back in awe and admiration wishing I could apply myself as you do. For what it is worth, I also like the swirls more than the straight liness. Looking forward to the next step.

i love the bronze strip over the swirls, i think it works better than applying something else. what about a bronze swirl!
I love your beautiful stitching it compliments the design so well and i agree with Anne, I think Bronze swirls would be a lovely foil, maybe as in pic 2 a where they're not solid, in places. But I do like b too.
