IHSW: A tree grows

My most productive Hermit and stitch in months (which is not saying much for I have been in a stitching funk)! I was able to add 5 letters to my name tree, a gift for my father for Christmas. Three more letters to go then it is off to the framers (luckily Sarah Lamp is giving me some leeway with frame time, gotta love her!).  The Maiden

Belle

 Yep, Another Start! I could not resist Ella the frog Princess from Mirabilia and I am hoping she will remind me I need to kiss a lot of frogs!
Here is my modest start, just the bodice and the chest (there was a error on the chart for the face, so she will be headless for a while!) The first time I saw her (around 10pm on the 15th) I thought, Belle from Beauty and the Beast!
Oddly enough I had planned on going as Belle for Halloween! Here I am with Snow White and Alice, Hipster Disney Princesses!
