Thought I'd post a pic of my new project and I am SO enjoying stitching her, I feel like my needle's flying! :D

Image

I hope the photo can convey how sparkly she is; the linen is irridescent, and over 50% of the stitches are blingy Kreinik. There are many gaps in the stitching which will be filled by beads - there are LOADS!! It'll take ages to put them on so this will easily be the glittery-est, sparkliest project I have done. My 9yr old daughter has got her eye on it already!! :lol:
