She is looking

I started by stitching Bernadette's face and hands.  This is done in basketweave with six strands of floss.  Her eyes are a large cross stitch done with black ribbon floss. Her nose is an appropriate green metallic ribbon floss cross as well.  Her mouth and eyebrows are backstitched with black floss.  I loved doing the faces first so they look at me while I stitch and giggle at her!

Bernie's got a green nose? LOL

Your sister is going to laugh and laugh at this.

I love the idea of a fall project, especially in the heat we have having... I look forward to seeing more done.
