Angel Lydia uses Bedfordshire techniques and was designed to remember a very dear friend who loved animals and had a big heart, so her dress is covered in paw prints and hearts.
It is made in Presencia Finca 60 with Cotton Perle 8 for the gimps.
This is for the pattern sheet only, also available as Ready to work.
