The right side (barring rain) is done. On to the left. Trying to decide how to handle it. At the moment I think I’m going to take it in three chunks. The boy to the right of the girls, the girls, the bit to the left. We’ll see if that’s actually what happens.

The black is so good even if it can be difficult to work with.

Oh. And I really don’t like stitching dark thread on a dark background.

It looks really good! Last time I had to stitch dark floss on black Aida I used my tablet like a backlight and it made it easier to see what I was doing

I have a little lightboard type thing I’m using that’s definitely making this project much easier, but the dark thread is just a little much.
