Duped!!

Day 6 proved to be my most troublesome again this round - nothing really bad just a weird, hard-to-adjust kind of day. Fortunately it only lasts 24 hours!

I took Saturday night off from the sleeping pills - needless to say that I didn't sleep much. I took it last night but still didn't sleep well; I kept waking up so thirsty, getting a drink then waking up again a short time later to go to the bathroom!! ARGH Crossing my fingers for a good one tonight.

While I've been doing China Clouds I've worked out some things that, while they aren't necessarily short cuts, they do make the finishing a bit easier.
The dark grey accent around the curls for instance. I was adding in the extra yarn in the centre and then had that many more ends to sew in for just a few stitches. What I do now is leave the tail from the one side of the curl and duplicate stitch the rest of it on. It makes for a bit of a thicker bit on the fabric but it's really inconsequential because it's not on much of the fabric.






Short post for today - I'm feeling the tireds again. Not complaining though, especially if this is the worst!!
