Sherri Fairy for one of my great-nieces...I used Mylar under the wings and base, but it does not show up in the photos...my first attempt with Mylar...It left a shadow on the bottom of the face that I don't like...but I do like the Mylar effect...very sparkly! I think Madeline will love this!

What a fantastic design for that shirt! I admire your skills in getting such a nice stitchout without any puckers too. Sometimes adding just a little mylar really adds life to a design. I especially like it in the wings. Well done!

Thanks, Chris...I did not realize that the mylar would show through the stitching...and if it does, I wish the digitizer would have corrected the file to fix this problem...these were digitized to for Mylar so I am a bit disappointed...But no matter now...I fixed it...now I will have to look at the rest of the files...

Thanks, Mary...I wish I had done the dress in a darker purple...although it does look a bit darker in person with the Mylar under it...
