In The Arms Of An Angel

Description

This long awaited design is an angel with an infant in her arms, the image of nurturing comfort and deepest inner peace. Her gown, with hidden roses, is a collection of vivid brocades providing the stitcher with smaller areas of intricate challenge. Directions are included to stitch her without wings. A replacement part of the back of her gown is included. It has the optional one over one skin areas which gives the realistic quality to the finished piece.
