Some more photos of Miss Jane and her Lamb. I love doing specialty stitches and have done the lamb in bullion stitch. Love doing them :). The crook is chain stitch and I toyed with the idea of doing the blue section of Miss Jane in stem stitch, but decided to go with cross stitch as I thought that a few different stitches would look better.
The bottom of her dress is a combination of satin stitch, herringbone stitch, zig zag satin stitch and stem stitch.
Once I have finished Miss Jane's hat, arms etc. I will finish off the tree that has branches everywhere. I also changed Miss Jane's face and neck. I decided that I would do it all in tent stitch over one as I thought that it make her face a bit finer. Discovered this many years ago when I used to do a lot of Needlepoint Tapestries.
