She has now got all of her hair and wings! I used some light effect light blue thread in her wings. Next will be the back stitching for the top half of the design and then move unto her legs and feet and lots of flowers at the bottom of the design. All the colours makes it fun to stitch.
Thank you for looking :D

I like the way the colours in her skirt match the colours of the flowers in her hair!

The top half is completed, apart from the addition of beads. I am now concentrating on the bottom part. Just a few flowers, a few butterflies and some back stitch to do before washing the fabric. As it was Gridded Aida from my stash I do hope the red lines will disappear easily. :x:
Thanks for looking :)

Thank you for all your kind comments :D

Today, I finished the flowers at the bottom, washed her and ironed her. Only beads to add now...
It was really an enjoyable stitching experience.
