What to do on a perfectly lovely Saturday

I think I will slap on some sun-screen, put on a dress, gather up my embroidery, the gothic army dress, sewing supplies and a blanket and head out to find a patch of grass somewhere.

Tadaa!

It's finished. Embroidery is done, done, done!

Click on the image and you'll get the original res one to critique all of my sewing errors and point out all the places where the fastening of the thread could have been done a bit more neatly :)

I'm quite happy with it. Now to figure out exactly how to finish the collar off and mount it.

What happens when Lia goes out in the sun?

That's right, she gets sunburnt.

I put the sun-screen on - on arms and face and such, but didn't think about my legs, so both shins are now sporting angry red skin, itching and by tomorrow possibly flaking. Bah!

UPDATE: No flaking, still only red and sensitive - phew.
