Tapestry work take 2! I completed my Raven, which was learning the filler work. Today I learned to do the outlines/edging. It was fun. I think I will continue with this after I return home. I purchased a cute little kit that has a sheep copied from the tapestry.

Medusa is also starting to take more shape! Her torso has skin and I’m working on shaping her shoulders and neck area after attaching her skin. I think for the next Medusa, I’ll use a different yarn for her flesh. This yarn is more like cord than yarn and doesn’t blend in well as I crochet it. I also put some volcanic rocks in the base of her tail to see if it would balance. I think I need more rocks. Lol.

  1. May I just say what a relief to find someone who genuinely knows what theyre discussing on the internet. You actually realize how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More people have to look at this and understand this side of the story. I was surprised youre not more popular because you most certainly have the gift.
