My triumph for this evening was to put the last bead in Easter Fairy. She is completely gorgeous, and I'm so glad that I swapped out the linen from the kit with a hand-dyed fabric. She took me just over one month to complete, and now she will make a trip to Michigan to be finished by Lori. I should get her back just in time to enter her in my County Fair.
Here is she with just the stitching:
And the first beads go in....
I chose Playful Sprite in 28 ct Opal Lugana by Hand Dyed by Stephanie and stitched her over 2.

Easter Fairy
I started Easter Fairy by Nora Corbett while on my trip to the frozen mid-west. She is absolutely fun to stitch, and I did have quite a bit to frog since I spent a lot of time talking rather than paying attention to where I was.
It's a bit hard to see what is going on here, but she has taken some great shape. I am using Playful Sprite in 28 ct Opal Lugana from Stephanie. The masquerade fob was a wonderful surprise gift from Gina Lantis-Figueroa.
