Thanks to the one that Fizzbw started on, I've decided to stitch up Earth Goddess--I fell in love with this design and I am so glad that Fizzbw started it. I'm doing mine on a pale lemon 32 ct evenweave and finding it so very fun to stitch.
Here's my progress so far--just started this on Monday
The colors are a bit different than they are showing up but it transferred pretty close. The spaces in the bodice are for beads and the spaces in the orange bits of the skirt are for metallic threads--which I'm waiting for.

Her charts are fantastic!!! I enjoy stitching them up too--I just hope it turns out as nicely as others have that I've stitched.
The fabric is 32 count hand dyed Lugana called Lemon Drop--it is so much prettier in person than I was able to capture in my photo.

Great start! You've been much wiser than me and started in an easier bit - I started on the arms and all the fractionals! And the colours are a bit close to the fabric as well....
So wonderful to stitch aren't they! Oh and I'd wait to do the circle until its mostly stitched up, I've had terrible trouble with my rotten counting!!

After a disastrous chain of events with this, I have managed to get it restarted-and it's coming along better than I had expected.
