Description

Yayyyyy fourth set! Why wait! This time I'm converting Elsa, her sister Anna, and the often-forgotten Kidagakash (or just "Kida"). Hannah-Alexander was super awesome and gave me permission to do ALL eighteen of her princess redesigns so yeaaaaaaaaahhhh~~~

Pre-Orders are being taken: you don't need to give me any money up front, it is simply to reserve your copy. I write your name down in a slot and when they're ready you'll get a personalized Etsy Listing. Solo princesses are $20, the set of three is $55. Just tell me you want to be written down. www.etsy.com/shop/pinkythepink

This is a Work In Progress and does not reflect the final product. This deviation will be moved into scraps when the next WIP is posted.

Currently:
All are approximately 24 inches tall on 18 count.
Elsa: 30 colors, 5 hours 32 minutes
Anna: 41 colors, 9 hours 6 minutes
Kida: 31 colors, 6 hours 1 minute

I picked these three our for this set for a couple reasons. First off being, yeah, Frozen was an alright movie, but I'm not in love with it, and I know that if I put Elsa and Anna into separate sets I'm going to have to deal with the rabid fans twice. It's cool, man, love what you love. But the amount of people who think I'm Hannah (yes, hi, I see you there! Hannah is not me! Hannah is Hannah-Alexander !) is getting to me and the amount of people on top of that who don't understand what cross-stitch patterns are is another pile of patience for me. So, Elsa and Anna are together. And I'm ready to put money down that a lot of the Frozen fans are totally unaware of Kida, poor, forgotten Kida. By putting Kida in with the set I am pretty much assuring she won't be forgotten about when people are pattern shopping. It also helps that the three of them are sorta 'water' themed and the blues really work together, yeah, you know, pretty much all around a good gathering.

So basically I thought that Elsa was going to be the tough one because Elsa is Elsa but as it turns out I believe Elsa will be the easiest of this set. And then I thought, "Anna? Anna won't be so bad!" Uhm, so, yeah about that, Anna uses basically a bunch of really dark shades of navy for a lot of her sections (outline, glove, bodice, bottom of skirt) but they're all... like... different shades of really dark navy so it's making it REAL DIFFICULT to pick appropriate thread colors that don't argue with each other. But I'm pushing through it, guys... I'm pushing through it. I think the top of her bodice might be 504 and blending that down into 939 is really challenging to match Hannah's original art but IT'S HAPPENING.

Okay so: Kida. Kidagakash. The amount of layers on her skirt. Let's just look at that for a moment, together. The amount of difficulty in isolating all the little areas her fabric overlaps is... aaaagggghhh. There's so much going on! She has her bodice jumpsuit thing, her sleeve dangles, skirt from her waist with white beads, and a secondary skirt panel at the front with red beads and embroidery. And all of this has to somehow make sense when I do it. There's going to be a lot of perception and illusion tricks in the end to make it look right, I hope you'll all be patient with me as I smooth it out.

They will be limited edition just like the first three sets.

I totally agree, Kida needs more love! She's FIERCE! And thank you very much for recognizing both of us, it's always uplifting for me when someone else is aware of how much work is going into it.
