12th century embroidery – Saint Michael and the Dragon – sneak peek.14 – Saint Michaels garment .2

…and again new progress concerning my “12th century embroidery – Saint Michael and the Dragon” project.

I just finished the right side of the second layer of Saint Michaels garment and now I am already working at the left side.

As you can see at the next picture – the outlines are finished and I just need to fill the new embroidery sections.

It is really funny – the outlines seem to take forever but when it comes to the filling of the sections, it is completely different. I have the feeling that filling the sections takes about just half of the time I need for the outlines, though far more stitches are involved… *lol*

…and again a close up picture of my Split Stitch embroidery of the new section for you:

…and now just one or two more days and Saint Martins second layer will be finished – can’t wait to also finish the rest of him. 😀
