This was a very difficult piece for me to pattern! Every step along the way was a new challenge. The time listed below isn't a true timer as I no longer properly time color picking with my mom (as it has been since I moved). We spent ages picking colors and correcting and adjusting things. And the Foundation looked it over and approved everything.

She uses metallic threads throughout her dress to really sparkle, as does the moon crescent behind her. We weren't able to work in variegated threads but I think that's okay, there's so much texture everywhere else. The background is done in half stitches to really blend with your fabric choice (recommended color in the pattern notes).

Now to prep for her three companions...
