This is my first Chatelaine and I can say I'm well and truly addicted. Each component was a new joy to discover and Martina is a master at her usage of specialty stitches and floss in her designs.
Fabric: 32ct antique white jobelan
Materials: EuropeanXS
Finished: August 1st, 2010
Tori center.
Swarovski cube at the corners of the tori center.
Close up of the 12 o'clock lotus blossom, 1/4 moon, and rock garden.
ETA: All framed up with lots of places to go. Hehe. The mat turned out much larger than anticipated, but I think it shows the design off nicely. Instead of a double mat, we opted for a wood insert to match the colors of the frame.

Joyce, this is amazing! Your stitching is just perfect. I can never believe how much detail Martina packs into a design and this one is no exception.
