Here is my finished Dreaming Maiden. I could and may add a few more details but for now she seems to be done. I wanted to use what I hand in house without buying anything new. It was a bit of a challenge not having the called for interfacing etc but I went ahead anyway.
I decided to do her in shades of white as her pose reminded me of a bride.
I really tried to get some good pictures. It's very difficult to take pictures of white. You can click on the pictures to enlarge them.
Some of the white trim has a bit of sparkle in it . I bought it in Micheal's scrapbook department last Christmas. |
Now I need to find an appropriate background to applique her to.
Well that's it from me.....I'm joining The Needle & Thread Network today....go over and see what my fellow Canadians are up to.
Take care:)
Your Dreaming Maiden is very beautiful Mary Ann. She has such a pretty face and the white fabric is lovely with all the sparkle and trim. I like how you did her hair. Thanks for sharing your enlarged photos to take a closer look. I look forward to see your applique work.
