I can stitch again

Took my time but here is my first item of the year.  This will be one of twelve center pieces for a set of crazy quilt blocks.  Will have some all bead butterflies and am thinking of a wire filigree one as well. 


Wings are done using a modified "Long and Short" stitch with some beads and sequins added.  The head is Satin stitch and the body is "Ghiordes Knot".
