Embroidery Notes
Panel six (which is the smaller, bottom corner, so really half a panel), is done. I have the right hand side left to go, and I think they’re a bit slimmer then the panels I’ve done so far, so this is just screaming along.

This is a really interesting world – the terre indigene existed long before humans, and control all the lands. They have compounds called Courtyards within each human city where they can interact with humans, but they are fully in charge of those interactions. Meg is a blood prophet, which means she’s been kept in isolation

Next panel is done. Since I seem to have lost my knitting mojo, this seems to be comparatively flying along.
The Copper Promise – Jen Williams
This book was advertised as a couple of sell swords go into a haunted labyrinth with a lord, and adventure ensues. Which is technically true, but that’s really the very tip of the iceberg with this story. It’s a way more wide ranging adventure than I initially expected. I can’t say it’s treading any new

Garden Notes
This is the maple tree in our front yard. I have a lovely view of it from my office window. The leaves on the ground have been mocking me since we moved in. They fell too late for the former owners to take care of, but until today, it’s either been wet or dark when

Another panel down. I’m really enjoying this. It’s not that I don’t like knitting anymore, but it’s nice to have something different work on for the moment.
Mast Landing Sanctuary – Freeport, ME
We’re in the middle of a stretch of insanely nice weather – up close to 70 degrees for several days now. Which has been super weird considering it’s now pretty much dark by 5:00. So we made a point (despite being in the middle of activities I will write more about on Tuesday when we’re

Knitting Notes
I’ve frogged the Joshaqan Socks – they didn’t look good with this yarn. It needed something a little simpler. So, I’ve switched over to the Woodland Walks Socks by This Handmade Life. I do like the look of this with the yarn better, so far.
