Visions of Dragons
I Finally finished stitching my Dream Sampler from Dragon Dreams. I've got 45 hours total stitching time on it. I didn't end up frogging out the Watercolors in the fairy's skirt. It looked fine with half stitches of the MUCH thicker Watercolors fibres, rather than the Waterlilies that it called for. I did, however frog the backstitching around the fairy's wings (what a chore that was!) and the backstitch swirls beside the fairy's wings. (which is much harder to see with the finer thread)
This one is for Olivia. I do plan on stitching it again for Rachel once I find a fabric that I suits it.
When I get around to getting it framed I'll post another picture.
Oh, I forgot to mention that it's stitched on 32 ct Iris Garden Opalescent Lugana from Silkweaver.

Oh wow, I love it on that fabric, congrats!! Wow that's a really nice birthday cake. I love fondant cakes but have never attempted to make one myself.
Very pretty!
The cake is gorgeous too... now I want to try making fondant!!
That's just beautiful! Congratulations!! I stitched the original model and I think it looks fantastic on that fabric!
this work of art is splendid!
I hope when you see it hung in your grand children's room many years from now, you will remember all the love you shared while you created it.
