Japanese Ladies

Completed Oct 2003. This is one of my favourite pieces. Stitched on 14ct white aida. It took a stitching frenzy of 1.5 months to complete. A lot of backstitching in black but really does bring out the details. A few fractional stitches but it was pretty painless. :-) The amateur photography (my bad) does not do justice to the real colours of the threads though. Can't wait to frame this one up.
