One page completed

... seven more to go. Until September, that is, after which I'll do the same thing again. At least the other book doesn't have the deadline.

So, folks, here I present Page One, where the three crows are cutting the wheat:



Admittedly, the crows look a bit bizarre, being finger puppets and all, but I like them. Today I added all the yellow parts, both for this page and for Page Two. I think the colours are not bad at all, even though I'd prefer the blue background to be several shades paler. But I have to use the felt that's available in the craft shop.

I also made decent progress with my writing - picowrimo truly is a blessing - and bought some fruit from the same street vendor as last time. I've made cherry compote right afterwards because Mum can't eat them well fresh without teeth, and tomorrow I'll be most likely making apricot jam again, as soon as I've got back from the dentist.

Oh yes, and it's fairly hot over here. It was raining all night and for the better part of the morning, but all it brought is more glass house effect. *sigh*

I think the crows are cute. :-)

Your crows are looking nicer than the real ones! Such strange birds those are! Rain is back again, too, but it´s only because of the thunderstorm we got just now. But no heat, definitely no heat. 23 is a bit meager for July! But it´s the warmest day for some time!

I find 25°C very agreeable. Of course, I don't have a pool to take under consideration. ;)

They are. They just don't really look like crows. But we can always pretend. 😉

I like the strong blue of the sky on your page. I think it balances the density of the yellow very well. Temps are much lower in the UK, to the point where I actually put on a fleece jacket for a couple of hours last nignht.

That is definitely the other extreme. For July anyway.

I love the crows - you are so clever with your crafting
