Time for a new update on this one! I'm really loving how it's stitching up! I've ordered the kreinik braid and petite beads, which should be here early next week. Here's my update!

Love the design, love the fabric choice :)

It's coming on so prettily too. I really want to stitch a Joan Elliott at some point. I just need more hours in the day. Luckily I get to watch SALs like this in the meantime :)
