Top-of-the-Waves Tuesday...
...and the weekend report.
Friday was our wedding anniversary--so sorry, no post!
Saturday was the first Spin-In of the year. I didn't need to make anything to take as I had plenty of leftover biscotti and cookies to share. It felt good to spin again!
On Sunday, the Husband and I drove to Half Moon Bay to have brunch at one of our favorite restaurants: Miramar Beach Restaurant. We got there early because the traffic tends to be really bad on the weekends. That gave us a chance to walk along the bluffs and take some photos.
The brunch was yummy and we enjoyed spending some relaxed time together. When we got back, I did my grocery run and spent a few hours in the studio.
I finished all the stitching for St. Charles! The last thing to do is the string art. I attempted to do some of it last night, but the charts were not very clear as to the exact positioning of the starting point. I frogged what I had done because it didn't quite look like the project photo. Unfortunately, the photo was too small and very dark, making it difficult to use as a guide.
This morning, I scanned the photo at 600 dpi and lightened it. This allowed me to print a large version of the project photo and I can see the placement of the string art. I can finish this piece now. Hooray!
