Progress
I stitched more blue around the first drink and then finished the orange and black squares above the Pick your Poison. I then did the rest of the left border in the squares instead of as painted.

Here and there
I finished the solid orange border around the top, I started the orange and black squares above the words and then added some more of blue background on the left.

There!
Ripped the orange border and have started using satin stitches instead. Worked on more of the blue too.

Blooper
So I worked a bit more of the blue background and then moved back to the outside border doing scotch stitches over 4 but unfortunately,
I can't count and it doesn't fit. I would end up with two threads left and I don't want a partial stitch. So I will be ripping the
orange stitches.

Two views
I completed the blue border all the way around and then added a few rows of the blue inside background using the same stitch and thread as the inner border. I did two shots so you can see the stitch.

Let's start another project!
This is the next project! Pick your Poison is by Pepperberry Designs. It is a 7 x 16 design on 13 count. I purchased it and these threads from The Wool & The Floss as they are having a trunk show of Pepperberry Designs! I will start figuring out some fun stitches.

The letters
Started the letters today. I am doing a wrapped backstitch with Neon Rays + Glow in the dark white. I turned the lights off so you can see
the letters, hand, and some of the lines in the sky that glow.

Another inch or so
I finished more rows of the Faux Bargello stitch for the sky. Compensating around everything is slow but I like it.

Catching up
I have been stitching and finished this piece. A friend's dog that she wants to frame.
I put this back on the bars and am adding more borders so it will fit it in a 5 x 5 box.
