The second cloud is coming along slowly. It's not been helped by the light at the moment, but then it is November in Yorkshire! My plan is to have the bottom half of this sampler done by Christmas - so finish off this cloud, the sky in the first cloud, and all the hemstitched borders. Let's see how it goes!!
After some serious procrastination, I got started on cloud two. I decided to start on the sky (lost my light grey thread....long story...), and it has gone in fairly quickly. I'm keeping it mostly one colour so the sky looks quite flat in the background and the cloud will be more shaded. I have also used full squares and not put half squares to the edges. I've done this in a few of the blocks I've completed so far and I quite like some of the patterns that have emerged.
