Mad Summer Finish Dash - Day 26

Friday was Felix' Dad's birthday. We had a few party preparations to work on during the day, but also a bit of free time to enjoy the nice and sunny weather. I did a fair bit of reading, but also some stitching on the Fire and Ember SAL that I took with me to focus on during the weekend. This time I actually managed to finish the brown and also the second colour, the second-most used on this page. I was kind of surprised to find it was a dark purple, it's so different from what I got to use so far! But I double checked with the cover picture and realized this is actually a part of the dragon already, how exciting!


I also did a bit of knitting on Viajante later in the evening, when the light was too dim for stitching, but I only managed a few rows, so it doesn't look too differently and I didn't take a new picture.

Oh and I almost forgot the most important part - Felix' grandma was there as well, and we gave her the grandchildren project, and she loved it! I got a lot of praise from her and the other relatives that were there, which made me really happy and proud.

Wow, you've reached the dragon already! Could you put a photo of the finished piece in your side bar so I can compare your progress please?
