Oriental Elegance

Post by luvabubble »

Not sure if I have already a thread for this one.
This is Dimensions Gold Oriental Elegance. I really like how this is coming along. Have been working on this one a lot of late. Trying to get it finished for my mother.

However the face without the back stitching looks a little freaky.

It really is elegance and such lovely colours in her robe too. Good work. I agree the back stitching will make a lot of difference especially to her face.

It is lovely to stitch when I'm not completely stressed about trying to get it finished. :)
