Redo...Spiritdancer Update...Come have a look!

Hello Everyone,
I am getting right to it today. I've completed most of the backstitching. I don't have the thread for the dreamcatcher. I looked everywhere. I have some on order now. I have some of the beading started. This design calls for more beading then I have ever had to do. The bottom of the skirt will have 3 rows of beading. I have the beads I just won't know if I will need more. Anyway...here she is....

Before:


After:


The beading takes more time then the stitching. My goal is to have this done before the New Year. I can do it! Thank you for stopping by, Carolyn

Bought she had bought the fabric from me and was so upset that the size was figured wrong..but she had purchased somewhere else and didn't realize the size was wrong till she was nearly finished...can't you imagine how she felt! Belinda Bo
