Part One Done

After all this time, I finally got part one done on the workshop. The frame's done and so are the inner parts charted so far. I think it looks pretty good. Now on to part two.

Laurels?

The side areas I stitched this week look like a laurel crown to me. Of course, that's not what it -is-. The giant egg's getting filled up fairly quickly.

Tidying Up

I finished the other big flower and even started the bottom edge of the eighth band. All that's left of this band is a little bit of green and the rest of the bottom edge. I'm getting there.

Requested Mattie Update

It snowed here on Monday. I -hope- it was the last snow of the winter. Obviously, Mattie the wonderdog doesn't. She will sit out in the falling snow and just let it cover her, happy as a clam. She's around a hundred pounds now and a very gentle and loving dog.

Here she is in the snow again. One of the other things she does is play in the snow by burying her muzzle in it. Sometimes she'll try to dive and bury her whole body in it, making snow puppies all over the yard.

Green Squiggles

I could call them something different to go with the measles, but I think I'll stay with squiggles. I think they're actually leaves.

Architecture

The town looks like the beginnings of an architect's drawing now. I like that I get to work on different parts all the time, and I'm certainly not bored with it.

Under the Flag

This week has really been all under the flag on the left. Doing this part makes me realize how much of this I've already done and how little there really is to go. I hope I can speed it up, but probably not.
