Beautiful! :applesauce: :applesauce: I know when I worked on the eagle project (which was a Dimensions Gold), my pointer finger was really sore from pulling so many threads through the fabric. It got to the point where I had a hard time gripping the needle and pulling it thru because the muscles hurt. Hope your wrist starts feeling better!

Sorry I haven't been around much lately (yet again) :(

I haven't given up on my XS though and here's proof.....

Although you can't see it in this picture, there is an awful lot of metallics in her dress. I'm also going to get a nice jewel of some kind to put onto her necklace. Thought it might be nicer than a french knot.
