How it started, how it's going. 🍂
After trying in vain to find a nice embroidery idea, I just came up with my own. Is it objectively very good embroidery? Probably not. Did I de-wrinkle my brain by doing it instead of something else? Yes. Would a plan or more thread options have helped? Yes. Is it now on there? Certainly! 😆

I'm not an embroiderer. I can embroider things, but it's the same difference between being able to slap together a chair that doesn't fall over right away - doing carpentry - and making something beautiful and lasting that you can sit on - being a carpenter!

Both are valuable but they're not the same!

Stopping for the night. Ironed it a bit, the lighting is terrible but the second flower also looks sufficiently flower-like.
I do need a third leaf at least, and maybe a little flower bud somewhere, but location thus far unknown. Perhaps it will be revealed to me in a dream. It has certainly been revealed to me that I want to change one of the yellow bobbles...

Yesterday I did not stop for the night, but instead changed the top flower a bit, and started on another leaf. I want to change the flower a little more, but genuinely need to stop on this side since I also need to do the other side... But as a treat, perhaps I finish the leaf today before I get started on doing the things I actually need to do today!
