And every 5th year I celebrate my (still) being in business with something special - this year this is a new design for a limited SPECIAL PRICE - it is Online Class 95 - Sleeping Beauty's Castle.
It is a Mandala again, but picking up the age-old fariytale theme of the bewitched castle, where roses grow after the evil fairy's curse.
You see the castle getting hidden more and more by the growing rose bushes until on the left side they are all abloom, when the Price has entered the castle and kissed Sleeping Beauty awake again....
This old fairy tale was one of my most-loved stories in my childhood, I had picture books and later small records to listen to. Later I watched a play in the theater at Christmas time - and so in my mind a certain "setting" was built which I now have freed and transformed into a picture of a fairy tale garden.
There are lots of special stitches to give texture, and some elements and threads will be kind of layered to create dimension.
And beads galore, as well as crystals. Golden braids. All things a true Princess would love as well ....
There will be a Tapestry-like center of cut bushes and a crystally pond... and delicate waterplays in the corner. And I assume that the one or other "small" will find it's way into this design during the time I "file" it to publication.... wait and see
