Blue Skies, Blue Eyes
Petei Angel Holding String of Stars |
I think I'll do gold Kreinik cross stitches on her gold and white bib, then nestle little white pearls among those stitches. After that, I will rummage in the stash for pink threads for her face and hands and silks in red and green for her striped stockings. Stay tuned for more angel goodness. Things should start moving faster now.
At least I hope so!
