I used Thread Gatherer's Silk'n Colors "Piccadilly Circus" to stitch the border, as I thought it drew all of the colors together a bit better, and I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out:
NOW, I have to get back to the model I'm supposed to be working on!
I also received a picture of my last Holiday fairy from Jill Rensel, which is "Miss Independence" (aka Halloween Fairy color conversion):
I'm kind of glad she was last one to be done, as I think she might be my favorite. The first four pieces are on their way back to me, with an expected arrival of Wednesday; that will be one awesome package to open!
BTW, if you are interested in having the conversion, I have it posted on the Mirabilia Stitchers Yuku board: Miss Independence.
Happy stitching!
Your Halloween stitching looks even better with the border!! I love the purple / pink colours ☺
ReplyDeleteWow Melanie. The border you put on the Halloween piece is gorgeous. What a great job you did on designing it. It really finishes the piece. Love the red dress on fairy. Do you mind we asking what she charges to frame each one.

I sent you an email Linda; LMK if it doesn't come through. :)
DeleteI wish our framers would offer mats like that instead of plain simple straight ones.
ReplyDeleteMiss Independence is beautiful! You did a wonderful job on the border of the 3 L*K bonus designs.
ReplyDeleteGreat job with the border on the Lizzie Kate Halloween piece. The border really brings it together.
ReplyDeleteYour Miss Independence fairy looks beautiful framed :)
Congrats on your finish, and the border you've added is just perfect for the design!!
