Finished corners!

I have finished the corners!  I did the rest of the rounded Sprat's Heads with the 3 ply of Gumnuts--that is the turquoise....next the large corner Crescents are done with Bijoux.  It was supposed to be done with 439 which is Garnet and the color is that surrounded by the pin in the star diagonals above on the right....but I did two of them and ran out of thread.  Not willing to order another reel, I substituted 438 and started over.  Last Ray stitches are done over the Crescents with a single strand of Bijoux.......this completes the stitching part and we are on to the crystals and beads!!

This is turning out so nice. Love all the colors. Can't wait to see the beads. Can you post a picture of what they look like before you stitch them on? Or have you already?

The corners are lovely. The turquoise looks like a butterfly with two purple moths above it. This is going to be over before we know it. Thank goodness beads take a while to attach securely.
