So, about a year ago or more, in an attempt to make myself less hung-up on formulating a clear idea of a finished product and tossing out my need to draw out my embroidery patterns in advance, I decided to make a pillow that was just one thread colour on a background of my choosing, and the pattern was to be determined as I went along. About 1/3 of the way into it, I got discouraged and stopped. So now that I’m not working, (thanks to my husband’s encouragement too) I’ve had time to pick it up once again . Anyway, I finished last week finally! It still has yet to be sewn into a pillow cover, but that will be the easy part!
