I finally finished an embroidery, even if it’s only a little one.

I used to do a lot of cross-stitch, and I have several kits waiting to be sewn. And now I realise that my eyes are getting older, so it seems like a good idea to try to get on with it.

Except that I’m busy.

So I’ve taken to doing a little while I sit in the car waiting for my son to come out of school. It works. The pig is finished.

And what they say is quite true. That ear is definitely not a silk purse.
