Progress is very evident, but also shows how much this project is like the tortoise instead of the hare. They still have 4.5 motifs to map out, much less embroider, as well as the bugs and birds. And then there will be the gold vine, calyxes on some flowers, and the spangle attachments. There is still time to be a part of the project, in case you were wondering, although the further along they get, the more select they will be on who does what task.

I'll do a more detailed write up of the embroidery session soon, but the brain is still whirling with little details of the MFA visit.
