Raining Cats and Dogs


It is very overcast, dark and rainy here this morning so my photo is from yesterday and only shows the books stitched, not that I finished the floor around them last night. I've also put two rows of tent stitch all around the outside of the floor area. They will extend up around the wall, too, to help in finishing, although I'll use the pale grey silk there to match the stone wall. Hopefully my colors balance those of the firebird.

Hopefully the Vineyard silks I ordered in Classic browns will arrive today so tonight I can work on the trunk, staff and bird's perch. That poor bird is getting tired of sitting on thin air!

Luckily he belongs to a wizard....
