I thought that it's about time to show "Innocence" again. I have been making progress! I have officially completed HALF! I've 12 pages done and 12 to go.
Here is the entire piece with a slightly-more-than-12"-ruler next to it.
And here's a bit closer view:
And finally, a close up of the babe:
If you stand back and look at the babe from farther away, you can really see how the shading makes the picture richly detailed.
That is gorgeous!!!
Is that counted cross stitch? (I haven't even finished the 2" cross-stitch Christmas ornament I started in November!)
Your work is beautiful!
I can't believe you took 8 kids to Disneyland. You are a brave woman. LOL We did have fun. Thanks so much for visiting. I hope you will come back soon.
"Innocence" is an awsome portrait to be needlepointing. Everything in it - the love of a sweet mother, the capturing of a babies innocence and beauty, and a precious little lamb. That is going to be an heirloom for your children.
