Maleficent - 43.65 hrs

left off here:

and got to here this weekend:
maleficent010

I noticed they changed the name of the piece on the HAED website, ironically to "The Evil Queen". I'm sure it was for copyright reasons, but I can't be the only Disney geek who is a bit irked by the choice in name change considering it's too close to another Disney villain's moniker (and is often interchanged with the Wicked Queen, Snow White's step-mother), plus, Maleficent is a fairy, not a queen, so the title doesn't even make sense! I will continue to call mine Maleficent because that is what my pattern says (and that is who she is).

  1. That's a lot of progress and a lot of dark colours. I bet you'll be glad when the brighter colours start appearing! :)

    1. It's not a bright piece overall, but I'm kind of looking forward to the purple. I do think all the teal is going to drive me mad!

    1. They've added a bunch of mini's of it, but the dithering makes it look even worse. It's not one I'd recommend, that's for sure! At least I have a stash of Jasmines to last a lifetime!
