So nearly there, and it's hard to imagine how beads and backstitch can make this even more beautiful, but I know these finishing touches make such a difference. Am patiently waiting here on the magic bench.

At first glance I thought you had finished but "no" not quite yet. She is looking so lifelike and awesome Helene and I hope you are proud of your work - it is absolutely first rate, so neat and even. Well Done. Not long to the end now. :whoop: :whoop: :whoop: :whoop: :whoop: :whoop:

FINISHED!!! One month short of two years, working on her on and off...

Thank you for all the encouragements. It has been my largest project to date. You have been very kind and helpful.
The framer estimated £72 for just a frame and she does not lace the project either, she would just stick it on the board before framing.

I bought some board from Hobbycraft and laced it myself then bought a gold frame.
I signed it and put 2020 right at the bottom among the stars.

Here she is just off the press...
