So close

I finished all but the last two hanging rows. Tomorrow for sure!

Moving on

I finished the sphere and then pulled beads for the streamers. Found the combo I want and started on the right row. This is going to take a while!

The Sphere

I finished the lines in the sphere and then am filling in with Splendor in the Hungarian stitch.

A new section

So I started at the top and did padded satin stitches on the blue area. Three layers of horizontal paddding with Trebizond and then one vertical row across all of it using Silk Lame Braid. I then started stitching the white lines using Splendor in tent stitches.
