A Little Lighter

I had intended to stitch the 'feathery' bits on the full motif before deciding what to redo but the 'heavy' stitching offended me so much that I ripped it all out.

The second attempt is not as light and feathery as I would like but this is more along the lines that I envisaged.

Happy Stitching

Definitely better - well done!

That does look better.Having more spae between the beads helps.

It's a shame you can't vary the size of the beads. A smaller gold to edge and maybe one strand of the bigger beads might give the effect. That being said, it's all LOVELY and we're splitting hairs here.

I'm so impressed with your morning stitching. I've got to get back to that myself! Inpsired by you, Susan
