The peahen looks almost done. I still have a lot to do, though. There are about twenty more rows to go on the top half of the design. Brown is still the dominant color, but at least I am getting past the branches.
Andreas' parents saw this at a craft store while they were out and bought it for me. It's a kogin embroidery kit, and I will start it during my Stitch Maynia week after next. I hope I can do it justice! Thank you Besty and Mike.
Not at all sure about the bag from March. The markers are to color it. I've been using the sponge the last few days, and it seems to do what a sponge does.
