Victorian Ladies - DYB RR, Cathy's block

 DYB RR - Victorian Ladies keeps going, I worked on Cathy's lovely block this month.But, unfortunately, I've completed it a little bit late due to some serious family health issues.
 I enjoyed so much to work on it. I tried to use all soft color threads and silk ribbons.
 This photo shows the final of the block. Its original looks so pretty, the photo doesn't justice its pale colors. A small violin charm is the last addition to piano playing ladies theme. I wish I could have a small piano charm!  The silk print was so nice, I just covered its surrounding, didn't touch the main figure.
This photo is another close-up to show you little beading materials I've used on the block. I added small sead beads on to little charms, they looked so pretty for me, I hope Cathy likes them too. Most of my quilter friends know that I love to use sequins, I shouldn't complete this block without sequins;-)) I'm glad that there were neat color sequins in my stash,  I think, I catched a lovely color harmony.
Now, I'm waiting another block to play.
