Jumping around

..with my stitching, that is. So, I worked on Lady of the Flag for a while....the bottom of her skirt, a few leaves and a bit of blue.Lady of the Flag(b)

Then a little on Victorian Christmas Eve...some of the white on her cloak, more greenery and a small start on the ruffle of her dress.VCE(l)

I worked on E (Eleanor), too...but I have to retake the pictures. I added the little fairy and a bit more of the actual letter itself. OK , I am having a really difficult time getting the lighter colors to show very well...E-Eleanor

LOTF

Lady of the Flag

The middle portion of her dress is finished...lots of cream thread on cream fabric...not much fun to stitch, but once those beads were added....pretty, pretty! There is still a border on the bottom of her dress that needs to be stitched....I really, really want to stitch some other colors besides the golds....;)

The colors shown in this picture are much more accurate than the last couple of photos.

LOTF

...no...it's not "laughing on the floor"....:) Lady of the Flag. Well, I worked on her for a good while yesterday....here's the overall shot:Lady of the Flag (d)

and the part that shows the area I was working on a little better. It is the area to the left of the flagpole...the center bottom fold of her dress. Lady of the Flag(c)

Is it yes or no?

After going through my Mirabilia WIP's, I found this Lady, who has been "sleeping" for so long....Even after all this time, I still like her. Her dress is almost done. I do need to stitch the bottom banner, as well as the flag. However, I left those until the end, thinking those portions would stitch up a lot faster than the dress. LOL! How right I was...the dress still is not done. Lady of the Flag

So what do you think...work on her, or not? :)

Here's an overall glimpse.... I think she has such a sweet face.
