"Seeing the Fairies Mandala go made me somewhat sad - I so love Fairies as a theme, and Elves and the small folks. So the last sleepless night produced the first of the fragile persons - the Apple Blossom Fairy - the first in a series of Seasons' Fairies. They will be stitchable as a sort of band sampler with motives, ornaments and such- not in a Mandala.
The first is the The Appleblossom Fairy. She will wear over-one blossoms and beads in her hair - her lovely face is "over one" too - her dress will be a symphony of creamy rose shades and lightest greens...Her wings will glitter and sparkle with beads, braids and a few crystals. She will be surrounded by airy fogs and clouds of Springtime sunshine and weather...There will be rows and borders with intricate and detailed Blackwork/Backstitching/Special Stitches and Beadwork...And best of all : She will have 3 more sisters for Summer, Autumn and Winter..."
