Things are getting back to normal again, after the last-minute flurry of cooking, baking, feasting, and celebrating. Yes, we had a lovely, quiet, small Christmas.
So, today I pulled the Hummingbird out, and spent an hour or so doing invisible couching. To do this, you untwist the metal thread just slightly so you can see a single thread of the three that make up the twist of the thread. You sew that down, then retwist the thread. Rinse, repeat. This also involved plunging the thread ends and sewing them down.
I need to do another layer of outlining on the wings, and outlining around the bird, and then fill in the tail. I do not believe I will have all of this done in a day.
Maybe several days.
Maybe a week.
