and evening. I have all but the last little bit done on the Blue Macaw.

All that is left is a bit of sharp border in the upper left, a second heart and 3-5 small little motifs. But it would have involved moving the hoop.
Instead, I hooped Extraordinary Birds and added 275 stitches to it. So, maybe a thousand stitches all told today since I spent the morning re-reading “Hezes Fly” which is the second of the Caldryn trilogy by Jenny Schwartz. Sometimes it can be weeks or months without a fun read, this time both this book and “All Fun and Games” by Honor Raconteur came out essentially on the same day.
