KAL Disney Blanket - Square 4 - Wendy

We're making steady progress on the KAL Disney Blanket!  And, since this is a bonus week, I'm revealing Square #4 after I revealed Square #3 yesterday.  Have no idea what the KAL Disney Blanket is?  You can read the introductory post here and the FAQ page here.

Square #4 is dedicated to Wendy Darling from Peter Pan.  Peter Pan was released on February 5, 1953.  That was 62 years ago yesterday!  Well here is my square just for her:

I think she is my best square so far.  My colorwork has definitely improved and she looks adorable.  Now let's check out all four charts!

KAL Disney Blanket - Square 3 - Aurora

It is Thursday of our first bonus week for the KAL Disney Blanket!  Which means it's time to reveal another square a day early so I can reveal another square tomorrow.  Hurray!  Have no idea what the KAL Disney Blanket is?  You can read the introductory post here and the FAQ page here.

We're on to Square #3: Aurora!  Aurora is the princess from Sleeping Beauty which was released on January 29, 1959.  Random fact about her: she has three different eye colors throughout the course of the movie - brown, blue, and purple.  All of the Disney merchandise has her sporting her purple eyes - the only princess to have a non-natural eye color.

So here was what my Aurora square looks like:

Some notes I will say about color choices:
1. I wish I had chosen a lighter pink that contrasted more with my white.  Right now it all kind of blends together.
2. I wish the same for my light purple.  Her eyes get a little lost

And here she is in chart form:

I think she turned out great!
