Betty Pillsbury & Green Spiral Herbs

Here's the February block for the CQJP 2013.  I chose the Scilla fairy fabric, although it is still very frozen here in the northern Catskills of NY state!  Scilla don't appear hear for another month or so.  The vintage image of the girl with the snow muff reminds of us that winter is still very much here.  

 I made the Scilla Fairy's outfit dimensional with Hannah bias-cut silk ribbon.  There is also 7mm silk ribbon in the collar. 

A closer look at the hand embroidery.
