Needle and ThREAD: Stitching for Literacy

We had a glue crisis for a while–meaning we didn’t have any–so the project was delayed for about a week. You think twice before “running out for glue” when the glue is 100 miles away. I believed my holiday project was destined to be a summer project, and began to think about sewing shades (still have four of those to do), but then Mike had a contact cement crisis–meaning two gallons of bad stuff–that had to be dealt with, so he handled both crises at once, plus several other chores into the bargain.

It is indeed a mountain-glacier-forest-river scene under the sunburst. I claim it’s a mirror, reflecting our view. Mike says it’s camouflage so no one can see our house.
