And it happened in those days ...

(A sentence such as Christmas tales usually start with.)

At the moment I`m studying beside my work, and to make me sit still, when I have a theory class, I have taken up embroider, which seems quite excellent for that purpose.

Han-eri

The textile is quite rough, which I think is funny to an embroidery, which normally is a delicate thing, I would not claim that precision is an asset of mine, as embroider challenge my patience, so the design occurs as I sew, in order to ensure balance in the composition, I'll draw up the pattern next time.

It is not finish yet, but close
