very beautiful- is there a historic period she represents? Love the embroidery on the gown.

Ys,Ireland, just before Christianity .Probably at about the same time as Arthur. She is from an Irish Celt family, but the embroidery was inspired by an Anglo-Saxon dress i found.

Liadan is a very popular character in the Sevenwaters trilogy by Juliet Marillier. She is a healer from a noble family and the grey dress is her trade mark, but i wanted something to give it a bit of colour, that is why i chose the Anglo-saxon embroidery.Her father is an Britain chieftain but i found nothing that i liked.

She's gorgeous! I love all the little details you've added: the embroidery on her collar, the little basket. Her eyes are especially engaging. Brava!
