Time has gotten away from me. There is so much going on around here but I really wanted to put an update out even if I don’t have a lot to show and I have to do it from my phone.
So, I was figuring I would be working on a bunch of other things, but have yet to put the Koi Pond down. I have other things I want to do, but I’m addicted to how this piece is working up. I finished stitching the left lower portion. It’s cute, but looks way better with the back stitching. Here are the before and after of the back stitching. It always surprises me how much it gives to the project.
Here it is while the hoop is off. This is the left half. I’m hoping the rest doesn’t take too long to finish because I have plans for this one. 
This is currently where I’m at on the upper right section. I’m still struggling to put it down. And I’m so excited to get it finished
