Really, the round robin that I started with my planets was not a poultry one. Not that you can tell from what I've been working on with it. This is the last one I will, and it was at my house before the round robin was cancelled. I feel an obligation to work on it before sending it back. It's rather bigger than any of the others, and it's got no empty spaces in the square - everything's stitched. On top of that, no sign of my planets yet, and still no sign of the autumn exchange I was supposed to get. That was to have been mailed on September 15th. I mailed mine before then. Not even an acknowledgement that it has come. For those reasons ... well, I'm glad it's coming to an end. I don't like dealing with people who do not fulfill their obligations. It's one of my biggest peeves.

When we went to New Hampshire at the beginning of the month, I not only bought quilting and stitching supplies, I bought yarn from the shop next door. The purple/blue/green/white stuff will be used to make an afghan. The single skein of blues and teals I'm going to use in a future needlepoint project.
I'm still sketching the outlines of part three's first side, but it's coming along. I even added non-blue colors. It's coming along, slowly but coming along. Not sure if this is going to get kicked out for Christmas blitz or not.
I had to do some frogging on this small band this week - I'd made one of the motifs wrong, consistently. On the other hand, it's done now and you'll see the picture next week. In fact, I've started the next band, so progress is being made! Now to get it moving along more, although this is a likely candidate to be put aside for the Christmas ornament blitz.
I don't normally do anything besides crochet in the car - it makes me carsick. That aside, I tried working on this project. Instead of doing the finicky bits in the seahorse himself, I did the sea ... and managed to do a significant portion of it! Who knows? I might even finish it this year.
