So....

A few days ago I posted a piccy of my 14th Century dress...and completely forgot that I hadn't posted what the embroidery/beading on it is going to look like. Oopsies.





so, this took me forever! Basically because I tried doing split stitch (where you come up from underneath through the thread from the previous thread) with one piece of thread... I then realised that it would be easier to do as back stitch and with two threads (as one got lost when I went to fill in the main colour).

And the beading... well, I did most of that during a lecture. I still answered questions and entered into discussions... I just... embroidered while I did it.
