unseen

Since I'm back from the holidays

the Sun and moons piece

is my steady companion.

I started adding a little piece of Birgit´s lace

but then ...

stitches, stitches and even more stitches.

I even took the piece to the St´nB in Rotterdam last Saturday !

And now, on this last day of August,

again  more stitches.

In places where I´ve been already before with blues

I go back in with other colours,

like the Salmon Moon.

I pick a colour from my big "thread nest"

and just look for a place that needs some more stitches.

I did some stitches on the legs of the Butterfly Moon

and she looks a lot better since I fixed the left side of her blue wings 

with fine lines of split backstitch

so it´s more of a unity with the other `megamendung` parts.

Large pieces, that were still only the loose, swirly blue fabric,

are now firmly quilted to the back

(although you hardly see anything of it !)

The dark (striped) circle behind the sun

will be more clear when I finish the red stitches around it.

A lot more (unseen) stitches needed
.....
slowly going !
