Leen published this lovely angel on the now-defunct geocities in 2000
It's a simple but graceful angel, and lends itself to variation (she shows several in the pattern writeup). It can easily be worked continuously by ending with the bodice instead of starting there, and using a short split chain and split ring to climb down into the skirt.
Thankfully, the pattern can still be accessed via the internet archive/wayback machine here.
