Actually, it's been done for a while; I've just had a hard time making myself set up photo lights in the sewing room. Now I've caught up and have reasonably good pics of all my recent stuff.
I had to soak Lusitania in a tub of water for 3 days to get all the Solvy out, but I'm happy with the way it turned out. So happy, in fact, that I'm going to inflict a lot of pictures on you.
Here's a shot of the whole thing:
This is what the face looked like after overlaying the sheer fabric. I was hoping the overlay would blur the texture of the embroidery stitches a little more... oh, well.
These two detail shots of the coral show some of the painted laces under the overlay and others on top of it...trying to create a feeling of depth here.
And finally, this super-detailed shot shows how the painted lace pieces merge into the machine embroidery.
