After completing the tracing the three pieces the placement on the clothing was next. After some trial and error the placement was finalized and in went the pins to hold the patterns in place.
To transfer the pattern buttonhole thread seems to give a good line and is easy to pull out after you have embroidered. 
The design is done in silver thread with a chain stitch. The completed back took around 20 hours.
The first project of the year completed!!! 🙂 Hmm now what to do next….
