no, not this grumpy lady in her peach fascinator...
this lady!
we have been spending some quality time together since sunday night...she's my olympic watching partner
i finished up the pavilion diamonds in very velvet for the lining of her coat, then backstitched the outlines in krenik
another view
then i started on her scepter and gold accouterments...i was mildly distracted by the swimming and gymnastics, but i managed to complete the two jessicas before turning in for the night
also added the last finishing touches on her face, she now has eyebrows and lashes
i'm on the hunt for two majestic looking rubies to go in the middle of those jessicas...any suggestions?
Hi Katherine,
ReplyDeleteShe is coming out amazing. Your stitching is beautiful.
Linda
thanks linda!
DeleteYes, check out the Swarkovski crystals. The size depends on what space you have. If it's smaller than 2mm, then Mill Hills' Magnifica beads have some very pretty reds.
