yes. it is no fun at all when we're sick. all my senses seems to be in auto run which made me a total dumber in actions. it's so frustrating that after so many days.. my immune sytem still in battle with the virus. lousy body :?
while i was able to stay awake from the drowsy medicines, i'd finished another guestbook for my friend to use on her wedding dinner's reception. chinese wedding is all about red. the auspicious color of all time. so, i chosed a very satin-ly red fabric with golden embroidery which glared my eyes like machine gun under the yellowish lights from my table lamp :[ i'd copied this sticker diagram for the main embroidery on the book cover. the character means double happiness and the pair of ducks symbolized harmonious relations in a lovers. perfect :)

i'd planned to fill in the pictures.. with satin stitches. but i'm sure with my so-so technique, it would be too ambitious and ended up a mess! so, i'm contented when i can finished the outlines.
the last step of taking out the tracing paper was really tiring! lol.

Wow! That's great needlework. I think it looks great with the outlines.
est, as always your work is stunning. That gold would be hard going under normal conditions but when you are sick!!! Aiaiaiai!
Hope you feel better soon.
