Ya know, I saw this piece up close and personal....and it's STILL flipping gorgeous!!!

Yup - me too, and my eyes bled in sympathy.

HOW this piece is not mostly dried sweat, blood and tears, I have NO idea!

Are you proclaiming it done now? After what, 150 hours of work?

I could just shoot you that it is a non-period piece so you can't show it off on your garb! (But at least this way you can keep it safely in a box, eh?)

BTW - I'm hoping to land my first AT proficiency today! Woot!

Good luck at the AT panel. You'll do great.

I hope to send this piece in to the Piecework Magazine contest.

It's all embroidery. It's a combination of stitches, and embroidery on the back of the pieces too. I think you can actually see the stitches on the enlargements.

Ooh Beard! It's gorgeous!

Ooh, pretty!

Thank you.

Very pretty!

Just yesterday I was asking about you - now I know what you've been up to.
