Oops, I finished last week but I've been slacking on posting. Here's Poppy!
I made a few changes as usual:
- used a deep red-brown instead of DMC brown in skirt
- changed white in wings to DMC 1 (pale grey)
- changed silver metallic on hip to red metallic
- matched style of beading on top curls to bottom curls more closely
My next project is Beaded Dragonfly Tile by Chatelaine. As suspected, adding fabric to the edges so I could put it in a larger q-snap has made a huge difference! I wouldn't say I've made a ton of progress simply because it's a slow stitch, but there's definitely obvious visible progress now. I'll save that for my next post, though. :3
Absolutely stunning finish! I love the deep red against the grey, it's so effective. Good luck with the Chatelaine.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a beautiful finish! And great idea with adding more fabric.
ReplyDeleteShe's beautiful. I hope you're very proud of her. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the Chatelaine project.
Wow.....she's stunning! Your colour choices are perfect.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a beautiful finish! I think she's one of the prettiest of the flower fairies (but I'm partial to red). Your changes came out great :)
ReplyDeletePoppy is gorgeous, congrats on the finish! Can't wait to see the Chatelaine piece!!
ReplyDeleteAnother gorgeous finish! So early in the year too.
