There is so very much brown in this piece! I am sick of brown. But the brown is catching up to the peacocks finally. Maybe I'll be able to go to some color soon.
The cranes and the moldering ships look lonely out in the bay. I wonder what they would say if they could talk. Tall skeletons without purpose line the shore.

This is a bit I designed myself. It says, "Shake it like Jiffy Pop." That's what I say to my dog almost every morning as she gets up and stretches. It was for a Little Extra for CyberStitchers EGA.
I stopped working on this on the first, and yet I made a lot of progress before then! While the side gargoyles aren't quite finished, the pedestals they sit on are started. I'll be taking this with me on the trip, so maybe more will be done.
