GYPSY DRESS MAGIC latest embroidery

Now that I have started this dress, I have been getting quite
excited.......Here are photos of my latest efforts......

 

This image is inpired by an old symbol of a Celtic Mermaid......
I have always loved this image, so I am quite excited to
finally use it in some way, mind you I did give here an
extra tail........Just have to finish the hair.......

This is a Celtic Heart Crown which I have almost finished......
Unfortunately with my mobile camera you lose a lot of the
beautiful colours.........

Another heart motif I am working on, now that I have
openly embraced my love of the heart symbol..........

Here's to lots more embroidery adventures and
seeing what this dress wants to become.........

GYPSY DRESS MAGIC Beginnings

Have finally started on creating my MAGIC GYPSY DRESS......
I have had this dress for quite awhile and have been pondering
doing something which is inspired by my love of GYPSY and
MAGIC........

I've realised the only way to get it perfect, is to just start and play
and see what comes.........

I started off with this heart detail.......I have finally embraced my
secret love of the heart shape.......

Added this patch which I have had for along time.......

Have started a heart band around one of the arms.......

As you can see this is a long term project, but it is great
to have start it..........
