If you will insist on all making separate threads for your projects, at least get weird with it ๐Ÿ˜„

For once I actually got some stitching time this weekend! Treated myself to some of the missing floss for Errol as a reward for making it through multiple dentist trips, and so this looks pretty much the same as last time I posted him here but in reality there's about 300 stitches of filled-in gaps that were dotted around his torso and tail!

Not the most satisfying progress but it's all gotta be done sometime.

Letting myself work on his lil claws now as a hopefully quick win. I'm maybe 40% of the way through the actual stitching (his head is massive) and already starting to dread all the backstitch ๐Ÿ˜…

Thanks! Really feels like he's coming together now. I just need another 24 hour challenge to force me to get most of the head done ๐Ÿ˜…

I believe he prefers to be called Goodboy Bindle Featherstone of Quirm... Lol

The detail on the scales is looking really good now!

My apologies, I always used to get into trouble as a kid for being too informal with people. And now dragons, too!
