Royal Holiday Completed

Yes, I am still here and still stitching!   Unfortunately I had some issues getting my old camera to talk to my new laptop, but have resolved that now.   Of course, I'm still stitching away, so I'll have some more in progress updates of my Miras-in-progress soon.

I finished Royal Holiday in November 2010 - she's done on cream Belfast over 2.  

Only 2 more Queens to do now!

Updated Royal Holiday

Slowly but surely making progress on Royal Holiday, which is my project of focus until she's completed.   I finished all the red of her cloak last night, and still have a fair amount of work to do, but I should be able to complete her in a month or so. 

Like all the Queens, she's a fun stitch - just big so time consuming.  I'll be replacing all the Wisper thread, which I really hate using, with DMC white, as I've done with all the other Queens in the collection. 

Do you recognize her??

Here's a start on my second Mirabilia, a very popular lady, guessing anyone??

Royal Holiday

I seem to have gotten a lot of her done this week.  I was really focused on working on the gold of the skirt and getting that completed, which I nearly did.   There's still a bit at the bottom that needs to get done.  I also have to go back and fill in all the scrollwork in the skirt itself, which is some dark brown DMC, two different metallics and a few beads.   But still....a lot completed!

Royal Holiday update

Royal Holiday was in rotation this past week, so I got quite a bit done on her.   Your turn, Kathy!

A Start on Royal Holiday

This is where I got on week one. I'm trying to rotate projects (since my "in progress" list has been rapidly expanding), so she's put away for a few weeks until her turn comes up again.
