Face and

I have completed her face and started her arm on the right side and moving towards the shoulder.  There will be more details added after more stitching is done.....beads, etc!

A road trip

A trip to the bead store was necessary!  I needed some beads for Copa, the upcoming Bergere by Leigh Designs, and some other finds!  The first five on the left are for Bergere, the next 3 tubes are for Copa, the green ones are a Super Duo bead in Peridot, amd large gold sequins!

All of the borders!

All four borders are done....helps that the skirt takes up a lot of the right side!

Starting 3 and 4

I have started borders 3 and 4 and am down to her waist on both sides.

Borders 1 & 2

Borders one and two are done around the entire piece!  Working on #3 working in towards the center next.

Mariposa Reframed

This was originally framed with a pink frame and gold filet around the mat and it did not go where I thought I would hang it....see side of the blog and look for Mariposa and you will see the changes we made.  The silver frame has touches of the purple in it to pop the stitching now.

Second border

I have started the next border in and have completed it down the right side to the skirt and  quite a bit down the left side.
