Progress on the princesses…

Since finishing my stocking, I’ve been working steadily on my daughter’s Disney Princess sampler. I’ve finished three of the princesses and started on the fourth. I did a bit of backstitching on one of the skirts and discovered that the backstitching on this design is going to be a pig. It seems that all the points are in the middle of the stitches – it’s ridiculously hard to figure out where the stitch is supposed to end. I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Here’s a picture of what I’ve done so far:

The princesses are surrounded by the alphabet, so there’s still quite a bit to do on it. I’ll be glad when it’s finished so I can get onto other things – I’m desperate to start something else.

I thought I’d show you my stocking – finished, but not “finished” YET.

I still need to wash and iron it, before even thinking about sewing it into a stocking…
