Despite some initial challenges this is going pretty well now! This is about half of the moon behind some of the castle towers, and those empty blobs at the top will eventually be clouds lol

It’s starting to take shape. You can already see something resembling legs. This week has been hectic and I haven’t had the chance to stitch much. I’ve been working on my backyard birding setup and that also took some of my free time. We also rescued a pigeon. I’ll probably stitch while keeping it company so progress might come faster.
That needle minder is hell on earth! Really fits the vampire theme.
Meet Domino. Disappointing pic but that’s the best my partner could take at twilight with an almost dead phone. I think it really likes my old pullover that I was intending on throwing away. Its wing is bruised/hurt and the leg is broken. Vet said it’s not going to make it in the wild with that leg but it might fly again. He said the best I could do is adopt it. The poor thing probably won’t fly outside without a leash and supervision though.
As much as I love cats, I hate it when owners let their cats roam outside. They prey on birds for sport, not for food. I know exactly whose cat did it, that’s why I’m salty. It’s not the first time he’s done that. Also I have a cat at home which might make things interesting. So far he’s shown curiosity but not predator behaviour as he does with other birds. Not going to risk it though!
Looking great so far! The hardest part of any project for me so far is just initially getting to the point where I can see it taking shape lol
I hope your pigeon is doing well!
I was really glad to find a needle minder I liked, it works so much better than the two old magnets from the junk drawer I was using before lol
Funny that you mention the two old magnets. My minder is a DIY from craft store magnets that are probably as good as your old ones. But that murderous cat brings me so much joy I had to make it. It works just barely but totally worth it.
The junk drawer magnets came from a broken knife sharpener, and they were way too strong. They were constantly leaving marks on the fabric and getting stuck to the scissors, and stuck to my bracelet lol
Your murderous cat one is adorable!
