Still around. Still stitching. The back stitching on this will kill me. Ended up using 2 threads of black as it just wasn't showing up with one and I couldn't settle on an alternate color that made sense/also displayed. You can see one of the colors I tried where I did the stitching for her arms. Or can you? (dun dun dun) Also dark green on black is not fun. BUT! Progress. And I do think it looks good.

Aren't we all, my friend. Aren't we all.

It looks SO good, though! I know stitching on black has had its ups and downs but the way it makes that umbrella pop...oh yes.

Thank you! And yes. We definitely are. I'm going to love it when it's done. And I'll mooooostly enjoy the process of getting there. And yeah I'm still convinced black cloth was the way to go.
