Don't forget Esmeralda's sequins: www.etsy.com/listing/261529718… The wonderful
Hannah-Alexander has given me permission to create and sell some patterns based on her work. I am hoping to work with her more directly to be able to create the rest of the princesses as well. It is an absolute joy for me to both worth on Hannah's gorgeous designs and create patterns that both me and many other stitchers will love for years to come.
A massive amount of thank yous to
Hannah-Alexander for letting me use her artwork and
Mattsma,
Katjakay,
Magical525,
SpitfireFae,
Fusainne, and
GraniteFire for doing color checks and quality control for me.
Something I really need to point out: pixel representation of thread colors is highly inaccurate. Real thread colors have been matched to Hannah's original artwork as closely as possible.
THESE ARE NOT BEGINNER PROJECTS BY ANY SENSE OF THE WORD. Please, please, please... these are complicated pieces with blended colors, hundreds of beads, buttons, half/quarter/partial stitches everywhere, and literally over thirty feet of backstitching throughout. It's a labor of love that I hope you will share with me when you're finished.
Each are approximately two feet tall on 18 count (or 36 count over two). [Note Tinkerbell is slightly smaller but her oval is the same size.] All three use beads and metallics. There is a special tutorial for Esmeralda's sequins:
