Or DEATH?! Bwah ha ha ha haa...
Lol!
Here's Angel of Hope - wow, she needs a nickname, like Gracie's :D - after her first rotation turn. I didn't get very far but I did get her face done.
I'm not sure about that stitch on the bridge of her nose - it is a half stitch on the chart, but the dark fabric shows through. I think that when I get her back out, I will make it a 3/4 stitch, instead. Then her nose won't look so odd. I may also backstitch her lips in a darker color. I'm not sure about that, though. My next goal will be to finish her hair and start a wing.
She is supposed to offset Gracie - they are the same size and they'll sort of face each other. So I did her skin over two, like Gracie's. The different fabric doesn't bother my Mum, and she has a different frame saved back, but she wants to hang them on either side of a dresser, with their faces toward each other, so I thought the skin should be the same.
I'm tempted to get Archangel out now, though - it's Mirabilia March! We'll see what happens!
Happy Stitching,
Tama
Another great choice:), will look so pretty with Gracie. Ooh, backstitch on the face makes me cringe, you're doing a wonderful job. Lovely progress!
