This is page 3 of the Pandemic.  

One card of Splendor Silk did all this plus pages 1 & 2.

Please note that the upper right corner

of Page 3 is missing.  I am leaving this alone for a short while while I decide

what to substitute for the floral area that goes there.

This particular floral area does nothing for me.

I would like to find a small dragon, griffin, etc to fit in.

No luck so far.  Send me suggestions please.

Soon a photo of page 6.

Meanwhile

This is Ice Castle by Mill Hill.

It still needs the back stitching and the large button.

I sweat the beads on this took linger than the stitching did.

Also meanwhile

I also went back to Do Different from Long Dog Samplers.

I started to finish this area off

only to discover it was off.  At first I thought it would be an easy thing to fix.

Ha ha

The black outline was off  - too tall

which made the motif to the right also off

So I started ripping and left a lot of red threads behind

(which are not as visible then what I saw)

so I picked at what could be gotten up

then used a lint roller on it

and finally took a damp white cloth to it to get the "stain"

Now it is clean and ready to recount and restitch.

Have a good week.
