well, I finished her this morning :D

here she is
Image

A night mare to stitch but looks so pretty now she is finished. I know the quality isn't great cause I'm tired and struggled to get a steady pic lol.

Also, cause some of you have asked, is a photo of the Day Fairy

Image

I've tried this one in the frame already and I have to say it looks fantastic. They've both been washed and ironed today but the stitches are still drying off a bit, and they're waiting to be rolled.

It will be a little while before I get them framed because my nan want to 'borrow' night fairy and 'show' her friends because they've all been asking how its going :roll: and saying how long its taken me (6 - 7 months) It will probably be rewashed and reironed and goodness knows what else when I get them back but ah well

I've never framed something as important as this before. A friend of mine and my mum's has agreed to help me out so I'll take them up to her and she will (hopefully!) lace it for me so I can watch and learn exactly how to do it

I'm so pleased to have her finished
