Queen is Waiting for her Crown

Filed under: Needlework in Progress, Queen's Silhouette

The Queen is coming along nicely. Her head was done in basket weave using 1 strand of Trebizond (light blue, color 602). The background is Crisscross Hungarian using Silk Lame Braid (dark blue, color SL15). I thought I just had to add the beads but I see the background needs the cross stitch. What thread should I use?

You can see that I altered this from a square to an oval which I think is more appropriate for a silhouette.
