Persian Fantasy: Lesson 2 completed


Finally, I have just completed lesson 2 and have also managed to take a decent photo with so much exposed canvas in the center. I tried different settings and now I can't remember which setting this one was. I must say that was not done in a very scientific fashion.
.
I would have finished this section much earlier than this, but have been helping my husband doing some gardening work for the last several days and it was so hot outside, close to 90 degrees and at times rather humid too, so whenever I came back inside after working in the garden, there was no more energy left in me to stitch. Oh well, my part in this work is now done, so I will be able to enjoy the air conditioning inside and stitch to my heart's content :-)
.
I now need to catch up with lesson 3. I just bet that by the time I am done with it, it will be time for lesson 4 as we get one every two weeks or so. Not good to get behind like this in a big project. What takes a lot of time is the laying of all those plies (5 of them to be exact). That really takes a lot of time, patience and manipulation, but it is pretty, got to say that about it.
.
Better get back to it now or I will get burried under all this work. For those who have been waiting for me to continue working on Hollyhock House, I will get to it as soon as I am caught up with Persian Fantasy. I am starting to severely miss working on it and even worst as now the fun part has started. Same thing for my other projects, I am afraid. Life is tough (sad sad expression).
