Ta da!

I joined the up for a challenge challenge this year, to finish 15 WIPs. Here is #2 for the year. I know it doesn't sound like much, but I tend to choose BAP's for the most part.

This is Angel of Dreams by Hanky Panky Designs.


She is stitched with 712 pearl cotton #5, #8, and #12 for the needleweaving on antique white Dublin linen.

Mother of pearl stars on her wings and collar

Cream colored 3mm pearls and seed beads on her skirt


I covered the cone with gold lame to shine through the weaving.

She was a lot of fun to stitch and I'm very proud of her! Now to figure out which project next to work on!

Eskie smiles,
