Re: Weekend In Paris UPDATE 7/11

Thanks for all your kind comments :) I'm having a lot of fun with this piece and it's stitching up quite quickly due to the half stitches which make up most of the background. The lady is nearly finished now, so here's a photo to show you all where I'm up to: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h123/p...
