These are thumbnail pictures only - click, if you wish to see a bit enlargened version.
Let me tell you - this design has soo many specialities and detail in it -
I just can not show it all without giving the design away

Many Special Stitches, just made up for THIS design - lots of delicate backstitched flowers, different on all 4 sides...
The peacocks, with different shades on all 4 sides - ornaments in the background -
shadowed Indian Landscapes and ornamental Knotgarden elements - filled with sparkle and beaded flowers.....
Waterbeds with luscious shimmering silk Rhodes Tiles...

( Can you tell that I am ever so in love with this design?? shhh !)

I made screenshots on three different background colors so you can have a taste of all the fine detail there....

Cathy,

this MUST be all silks -- the shimmer ! the gloss -- but you know: I will make a hand-made conversion into DMC - so it can be stitched as well in a very affordable kitting option !

Chief Instigator of Chaos

Oh...MY....GOODNESS

I will be signing up just a soon as DH gets his surplus check next month. Really, you had me at peacocks. I didn't need to look to know it would be amazing, but I really could not help myself

. I have such a weakness for peacocks. But, that's not such a bad weakness to have, is it?

I'm thinking about giving this one an antique-ish sort of look. Would a fabric with a "vintaged" look to it be appropriate? Guess I will have to wait for materials (as patiently as I can manage

) to make some fabric decisions.

~Cheryl My blog? Find it in my Yuku profile. WIPs and recent finishes can be found in my albums.

this is really beautiful. I need to make progress on my Oriental Harem Garden (ie finish it!) before I start the next one but this may be a contender. Its just so hard to choose out of so many gorgeous designs, isn't it?
