Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
These are beautiful!
I think you should get the other geisha one too, the purple one. It would be stunning.

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
WOW you are going ahead well with the Geisha and the parts which are going in now are really 'setting off' the whole design.
I really love the Blue Geisha, so elegant and gentle. It would be fabulous to stitch but a lot of different shades of blue me thinks.

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
Hello all, a small update on my geisha. I am not onto the finishing touches, back stitching and all. I am really happy with the progress on this one.

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
This is very pretty Wolfie. Can't wait to see her hair ornaments. They are usually a bit tricky but they do really add a final flourish to the design. Lovely work, you have done well with this

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
The white backstitches/long stitches are already making a difference!

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
Nearly finished now, about halfway through the details. The french knots are always a little fiddly I find. Half the lazy daisy are done on the obi now. Then there will be some more back stitching to finish on the obi and around the head and background. I think the metalic gold back stitch will pop out more once the final maroon back stitch is complete on the obi.
So I anticipate my next post will be the finished piece, barr framing as I want to do the other geisha and samurai to frame them together.

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
That has, without a doubt, ignited the picture. So much detail.
Always come as a surprise how much a little backstitch can improve a cross stitch picture.
Regards,
Richard.

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
Thank you everyone for your nice comments. I am pleased to show you the completed work which I finished this evening.
![Image](https://s18.postimg.org/jse1ub2if/IMAG0726_BURST002_COVER.jpg)
Now I shall put her somewhere safe until I decide either to frame her on her own or do the others first and frame her with her fellow geisha and Samarai.

Re: My Projects, Wolfie.
That's pretty special. I particularly like the fabric detailing on the inside fold of the Kimono. The designer really thought about what they were doing & you've executed it perfectly.
Congratulations on the finish.
Regards,
Richard
