Faces of Faery 162 WIP

It has been a week now (since March 1st) that I decided to continue working on my FOF 162, from Heaven and Earth Designs (artwork by Jasmine Becket-Griffith).  I had started this piece in February/March 2013 and had stitched it until July 2013.  So it has been almost 2 years since I have stitched this...  Here is the progress I have made in 1 week's time:

I wanted to stitch her other eye, so here she is with both eyes finished!


Here is a close-up:

And here is what I had the last time I had stitched her (July 2013):

New Start FOF 162

 

Back in March 2013, I started this new cross stitch, but I never got around to taking photos and posting it in my blog.  I have been lazy!  It's Faces of Faery 162 by Jasmine Becket-Griffith, pattern by Heaven and Earth Designs.

I had been working on it on & off until July.  Since July, I haven't touched any of my cross stitches... I have been sketching and painting instead.  So far, I really like this one, except the hair.  I think it looks too dark.  It has lots of navy blues instead of purples.  But maybe once the whole is done, it will look better?

Close of the eye.  I LOVE her eyes!  So much detail!
