First of all, sorry if you get this twice; my browser had filed it waaaaay down the list of threads because waaaaay back when there was another post with the same original subject line.
Secondly, thanks to those of you who gave me ideas on how to embellish this piece. It is truly a piece I will always be proud of and I hope that its recipients will think so too.
I just finished this morning this x-stitch. Here is a link to the photo:

If you choose to lookfurther into this album, you will find a photo of the original work. Thechanges I made are: added blending filament to the window to give it awarm, but frosty look (if that makes any sense...); changed the colour ofthe dress to match the bride's gown; changed the bride and groom to silks;used wisper blended with DMC for the fur on the cape. In a previousdiscussion, I had looked for opinions on how to use the wisper and I decidedthat a fully fur-lined cape would be most appropriate give a New Years Evewedding in Alberta! Now I just have to save up some pennies to frame it. Good thing I still have lots of time. :)
