May I have this dance (S Fenech) - Pethair xstitcher

A Finish! for the first day of Summer and in honour of Fairy Day (24th of June)

She is an experiment in combining tenting with X-stitches and is done 1 over 1 on 32 ct Lugana (Burnt Papyrus - SMF) I started her in Feb. of 2006 and completed here May 2009. This was one of my swips... most of her was done in 2008 when she became a focus piece. She is now framed and hanging up on the wall.

Wonderful, no other words for it! Great job, my English is insufficient, I only can express myself in Dutch properly, so that is what I'll do now:
Geweldig! Een meesterstuk!
