Since I am wrapping things up at work before summer break, I ended up working through my lunch hour and may end up doing so again today. That means a little less stitching time. So I don't have much progress to show.
The only piece I actually did get time to work on yesterday was The Dragon of the Winter Moon. I did finish up the blade at the end of the tail and filled in a bit more of the icy mountain range below the dragon. I know it is hard to see but there has been progress. That's one of the reasons I backstitch as I go along. It helps me to "find my place" as we used to say in grade school. I've decided this dragon's name is Luna. I had first thought it might be Selena but I realized soon enough that Selena wasn't a strong enough name for this matriarch who curls so protectively and alertly in her mountain stronghold.
We are expecting some rain later in the day. I am hoping it holds off till evening since I'd like to finish the first motif on The English Band Sampler after work. The soft light of 5:30 to 7:00 pm is perfect for stitching on the patio.
But if that doesn't work out, there is always The Silversmith's Shop or some sewing and assembly projects to work on indoors.

I, for one, am impressed with your progress! Nice job.
Nice name choice, she's emerging into a lovely lady.
Good progress on Luna! I am going to stitch a project on black fabric, and will have to try stitching outside... later in the evenings. It is so humid, I have had a headache today. Enjoy the break from work! Hugs!
Oh, I love that dragon!! Gorgeous!
She looks great Regina.

Her name is perfect for a dragon of the winter moon - how clever of you! She's a lovely girl.
Great progress, the dragon looks lovely on that fabric too.
