It was time to move the qsnaps again today, so I took another picture. She's coming along pretty nicely--even if I'm working on mostly shades of white right now :roll:

:D Thanks for all of the very nice replies! It does really help urge one to progress with these larger projects, especially when it's in an area that is a bit tedious. I've just finished her face yesterday, and am now working on the remainder of her hair, as well as the white bedding. So, the next update should be a very nice one, as she will actually look like a sleeping beauty :lol:

Time for another update--this is a pretty big one--I now have her face and hair finished as well as a good amount of the bedding. I'm really having fun with this!!

Lovely progress. I am always amazed that these little x's can make something look so realistic. It really looks like flowing fabric on the bedding and her dress. :applesauce:
