Finished the Dress!


Yes!  I finished the dress - all done in brick beading.  Brick beading is faster but not fast enough!!

Now on to finishing the next girl's dress and doing the background up to girl number 6 and I will be all caught up.  Hopefully Ruth will keep to her promise to finish this in the next few months.

Row of Ladies Progress


Hi all,

I'm back working on my Row of Ladies which was to be my summer 2019! project.  I thought I had misplaced the last lesson when I moved but after talking to Ruth it appears she has yet to write the stitch guide for that last girl.  So I decided to try and catch up in order to get ready!

I've pretty much finished lady #3 and have now slogged through half the background.  Let me tell you there are a LOT of beads in the background...and they are cross stitched so have to be done twice.






Girl number 3



After finishing this girl I skipped to the fifth girl because girl number 4's dress is completely beaded and I needed to do some needlepoint for once.  Here she is - I'm switching between needlepoint and beading to keep my sanity!  



Girl Number 5

Stay safe this week
