A very nice start!
Where I use applique designs as quilting motifs there are lots of spaces left between those motifs. Those background spaces would be filled with filler such as cross hatching in a thread to match the background The applique outlines may also be done it matching thread, but could be done in a low contrast thread.
First lesson learned is that I don’t like the long skinny leaves near as much as the short leaves, and the two do not mix well.
