last update before she has a face! So...was into a movie today, and goofed. The holly berries in her hair have a different color than they are supposed to. I picked up 326 by accident - should have been 304. Oops....don't think anyone will really notice.

Oh wow! you look like you're getting pretty close to done! I wouldn't have known the color of the berries were off. They look beautiful.

I didn't notice the change in colour of the berries before OR after you told us, so I wouldn't worry! She looks amazing. :D

I finally finished her on 9/30/12. The small bit of beading was great to finish off the piece. Skin was stitched 1x1. The pictures don't really do the piece justice. I am putting her away now. Once the companion pieces are started/finished, I will wash, press, and have them framed at the same time.
