icons: Cranford and Return to Cranford

Here is the final batch of Cranford, and my first attempt at making icons of Return to Cranford, all from promotional stills.

While of course most everyone and their mother (no joke!) loved Cranford, some disliked the sequel. I however found it to be an excellent follow-up that included some of Gaskell's original scenes that the first lacked (the humorous situations surrounding the "cage", for instance!), and the new editions were well done.

(Did anyone else notice Margaret's "train station dress" from N&S on the character of Erminia in several scenes?) ;-D Squee!

As always, never alter my graphics, comment, credit, and enjoy!

Teasers:
1 2 3


Please, if you take anything, be so kind as to take note of the numbers of the icon(s) you're saving, since I am always experimenting with my styles and I would like to know what people like best. (This helps me so I can make more!) The numbers are above the icons.

Sorry to interrupt here, but may I draw your attention to my post about turning my costume blog into a book? It has the logo you designed for me, Time Traveling in Costume. http://chloeandrudy.livejournal.com/258172.html

Gorgeous icons! You've made so many beauties in so little time, do you happen to have a lot of free time on your hands?

I love Miss Mattie! I love Sophie & Dr. Harrison, a very good Christian couple in my opinion.
Can I friend you? I'm a Christian and really have no one to talk to about religion, costume dramas ( basically anything that makes my heart & soul happy).
