This blackwork takes a lot of time! It doesn't help that I've been distracted by work and other things, too. I do have about a quarter of it done, though, and I think the blackwork looks nice. My only criticism is the use of so very many reds.
Andreas was determined to decorate for Christmas for me, even though we had none of our stuff (still don't). So he bought some lights from the grocery store and strung them up. Thank you, Andreas.
