Absolutely FABULOUS Helene. She really is stunning and your stitching is so neat and even. WELL DONE :whoop: :whoop: :whoop:

Good luck with all the beading, it will really add the bling to this lovely design.

Thank you so much for all your encouragements. It does help a lot. :wub:

The beading was done today and this is the finished item. On the pattern, she had beads over her head, floating around, and also some floating around in the grass. I decided not to have any "floating beads" and just beaded her necklace, her hair and all the grapes in the basket.
Et voila!

Thank you everyone SO much for your encouragement. It does help a lot :wub:
She is framed and on the living room wall. The photo is not very good. It is hard not to get reflection on the glass.

She looks so 'at home' sitting up there Helene just as if that spot was kept for her. Love it.
