Terrific colors on the butterflies. The little gil is really cute. I am sure that your god-daughter will love it.

Both of them are really gorgeous - the butterflies with their vibrant colours and the one for you god daughter just so lovely too. Great going with them.

I don't find any problem working on it during the day but it is harder on the eyes at night. When I'm working on it at night I put a white pillowcase on my lap so that I can see it under the dark fabric and that helps me to find the holes much easier, if you know what I mean? x

Good idea.

The dark fabric just makes the butterflies pop out of the fabric. I'm going through my wish list right now thinking about what might look good too :)

Yes it is Lily of the Valley. Just waiting for the mount to arrive in the post and then I'm going to get her framed :)
