Come fly away with me and Angel Grace

I finished the stitching on Grace!
I am so pleased with her....and me. From tip of halo to bottom she is 5 and 3/4" and wing to wing 2 and 3/4". I did make a few changes----I stitched the Round eyelets and the double cross eyelets in DMC 3033 as I never did find my Pearl cotton and I changed the beads to petite size.
The beads at her neckline are just enough.....
Her wings look much better in person. . . .just enough sparkle for her to fly. Now to decide whether to frame or make into an ornament. This makes #11 finished for the challenge---of which 5 are to total completion.
I am still not ready to pick up La D Da again yet. I think it will be the dragonfly piece from day 14. It is the largest one left, so maybe I best get going on it.
I am off to work today. . . so I will wish you a wonderful day. Thank you for stopping by and leaving comments and thank you for the emails.
