March Wrap Up
Having been in the lingering grip of a reading slump for a while, March was one of the most successful months I’ve had for a while, in terms of both quantity and overall quality. With that said, here are links to the books I read & reviewed, followed by a quick look at the embroidery projects I completed.

Favourite of the month: Klara and the Sun
In terms of embroidery projects, I had a lot of fun throughout March working on some more original designs.
I wanted to start a little ongoing series of woodland creatures, which led to these hedgehog, fox, and rabbit designs.
The seascape came about when I decided to try and make something with a chunky, textural look; the autumnal tree was a gift for Mother’s Day; and frankly, it was only a matter of time before I made some kind of tribute to Carrie Fisher!
