First, here is Ice Dragon King
Next is Enchantress, Now complete, she just needs framing

Here is a close up of the gold couching detail on the edge of her skirt

and finally the first part of one of the advent calenders
Hope you like tham

Fantastic finish on Enchantress, looks so 3D when you see the backstitching.
Your other projects look lovely too.

Thanks for your comments everyone.

I really enjoyed working on Enchantress but I am so glad all that backstitching is done
I am hoping to send for the Afghan material next week so I can add that to the list. Rosemary has very kindly sent me an alphabet chart that is perfect for it and I am looking forward to starting that

Well I am glad to say I can finally get back in to the SAL after having no computer for several weeks.
This is the Afghan for my expected grandchild

and here are a couple of close ups of the motifs

I have part of the Whale motif to finish and that is all I can do then until we find out what gendre the baby is, so I can put his/her name in the centre squares.
And these are the advent calenders up to now

with a couple of close ups

Hope you like them.
