The thread snafu is over, thank goodness, and Anne of Cleves' gown is now completed. Sometimes "reverse stitching" can be a learning experience! With the red velvet done, I added the trim at the hem of the dress, again using Kreinik #12 tapestry braid #3221 to outline the area and filling in with DMC floss #729 and Smyrna crosses of Kreinik braid #127.
Next on the to-do list is the veil of Anne's headdress, which is decorated with an elaborate tassel. I've added the top of the tassel, a single diamond ray stitch and Smyrna cross, so I can stitch the veil around it.

I like the way you backstitched around the sleeve to set it off.
