The first chair is finally complete and the second begun. The third colour is a sort of peachy orange which works fine with both the orange and pink of the kitchen and the blue and red of the lounge. Juggling these between the satin stitch and the rest of real life has meant that the first chair took nine months from start to finish. I hope to speed up if I am to complete a set of six and still have enough life remaining to finish the satin stitch as well.

The sheep broke onto the terrace nursery and nibbled the tops of some of the plants I had brought up here for their own safety. Not too much damage thankfully. A stronger barricade has been installed and planting out into sheep-free zone should commence on Wednesday.
