The Princely Dragon’s clothes are almost complete. This is as far as I plan to take him for now.
Lots of background work needs to take place before I can start stitching everything in place.

How I am loving this journey you are on and what a wonderful dragon has emerged
He's beautiful! Only one thing…the violin was not really 'visible' to me at first glance – not enough contrast in the outline? Maybe this is just a photo issue…In any event, the energy and joy of this figure is a delight! Thank you for sharing this with us…Elisabeth from CoC
Thanks Margaret. He has been so much fun to work on. The embroidery looks empty without him now.(all the pieces are in a bag to be sewn on later)
Hi Elizabeth,
You might be right about the need for more contrast but I plan to hold off until I am further along with the entire panel. Thanks for your input.

Oh, don't change the violin!! My daughter is a violinist, and yours looks just like her antique Italian instrument. I was thinking that the Dragon Prince must be a really good fiddle player to have such an instrument!

Oh yes the Dragon plays beautifully! The children dance when they hear him play.
Love the frills on his knees!
He's lovely, So charismatic.
