Such a lovely lacy look and a very effective use of beads -- and with the metallics and beads and sequins, how she must sparkle in real life!

This is fabulous! I love how the picture is so well balanced. Just the right amount of contrast, shading and beading. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: You did a fabulous job stitching this piece! Now excuse me while go hide my face before anyone sees me turn green with envy. :anotherfrog:

Congrats on the finish!!!! She looks gorgeous! You are indeed brave to be working with all those beads!!! I am wondering what happened to the pink thread? Did you find where it belonged? Because I couldn't place it in the picture!

Vani,

Ah, the pink thread. There were two symbols almost the same, in fact they were almost impossible to tell apart. The pink thread turned out to be her lips, but when you made your comment I had a good look at the chart. If you remember I had copied this from a library book and parts of the chart were a bit difficult to decipher.

I am very pleased with the result and am off to have it framed tomorrow.

I would like this opportunity to say thanks to everyone for their kind comments
