The colours on that are so rich, I love the way they show the folds in the fabric!

It's a beautiful design. It's funny how when we finish one project we want something very different for the next one.

I love the colors!

Thank you all for the wonderful feedback! Here's an update:

I've been off work this week, so I've had lots of time to enjoy working on this project. I'm still loving these colors!! I can't wait to get to the beading (my favorite part!)... I think that will really take it over the top. :D

Re: Venetian Opulence (Mirabilia) - Update 8/12

Post by AngelaV »

Here's the latest update.... I know I've said this several times before, but I just LOVE working with these colors! And I'm excited that I've reached the point where at least a few of the sections are starting to look like something... The fan and the fleur-de-lis have come together at last.

Image

Here's a close-up picture of the fan. I always like the way Mirabilia designs use subtle color changes and blending to create depth.

Image

I'm going to be out of town for a conference for most of this week, so my stitchy time will be limited... I'll post another update once there's enough progress to make it worth sharing.
