Kitty Litter. Week 3

Week 3 is over. I have  ~8% of the picture (12 x 7 cm), 57 hours of work.


Things I like the most:
- puzzle "find the most efficient way of using the thread". I don't want to cut the thread too often, I want reverse side as neat as possible, and stitches of a single colour are definetely not in a single row. I guess my progress will be much slower when the puzzle part will be completed. I don't expect so much fun from large area in single colour embroidery.
- using scanned pattern and MS Paint for marking stitches already completed. I wouldn't  like doing this on paper.

Things I don't like:
- embroidery hoop. As far as I remember myself, I never liked them. Seems I just need to feel the thing I'm creating and embroidery hoop brings some distance. Well, I think I'll have to finish this picture using the hoop. I do understand that embroidery in hand would be made in another tension and this would be visible so I guess I have no choice now.
