Faces of Faery 88: Fourth Post

I have actually been working on Faces of Faery 88.  I did notice the other day when I put the WIP pic next to the original pic that my evenweave cloth doesn't appear to be so even, the stitched image is taller than it is wide, and the stitch count is square.  A little annoying, but it doesn't look bad.

This pic, I was just adding more fleshy colors to her face and more of her neck is visible, plus her eyes are getting some stitches as well.

And, as I knew I would, I got tired of flesh tones and did the purple with the most stitches.

It kind of looks funny now.  The dragon's been white for so long it seems weird for him to be that dark purple.

I recently got my shipment of fabrics from Picture this Plus that I ordered back in July.  I know, that was a while ago, but I did order a lot of different colors, and I didn't need anything quickly.  In it was the fabric for The Wolf.  I might work on that eventually, but maybe not until next year.

  2. I joined your blog a while back but didn't add you to my following list so you have been completely overlooked for months - sorry! I love all your projects, especially the cute baby animals and the dragons. Faery 88 is looking great, especially now some purple has been added. :)
