I have unpicked all the embroidery on the border of the landscape and am in the process of re-stitching it. Rather yawn-worthy to show you another picture of basically the same thing you saw in my previous post. Even my evening knitting is boring because I'm working on another pair of socks. More of the same.
My fabric order arrived and there's now some white that I can hopefully turn into 'winter sky' for landscapes. I anticipate a day of pretty big m-e-s-s as I squirt shaving cream and paint all over the table and then slop it onto fabric. Very scientific process overall. Good thing I don't have to do it very often!

- Those of you who are drowning in UFO piles, perhaps reading THIS article will spark an idea (scroll down to get it all). The adoption plan sounds promising! And while you're at it, perhaps there might be some tips HERE that would be useful.
