In addition to renovations and gardening (and laundry) I also did a little stitching on my fairy.

All I had left to do was the outlining. But there was a lot of it!

I used to HATE outlining. But something has happened with age… like binding, I find it oddly soothing. I just stitch and stitch and stitch and don’t worry how close to finishing I am.

And eventually…

There’s nothing left to outline. You sit back. You admire your work. You do a little internal celebration. You compare it to the picture on your pattern.

And then you notice…

You forgot to stitch her poor foot!

So, you’re going to have to wait until next week for an FO post!
