Well, not quite Triumph and Disaster (apologies to Kipling!), but when I was sitting hibernating with my canvaswork at the weekend, coughing violently but still somewhat exhilarated after a great Bloggers Meet Up in Bath (arranged and blogged <\/a>by Jules of Adventures In Thread), I made a Dreadful Discovery.<\/p>\n

\"Top<\/a>

Top And Long Sides Finished<\/p><\/div>\n

This is the good bit. The top and the long sides of the footstool cushion are finished, and I am very pleased with the way it is looking. Before I assemble the finished piece, I will need to block the canvaswork, and straighten it up a bit, but that’s a minor matter.<\/p>\n
