The bottom section of the Cloak is completely finished now. I have started to stitch on the Prince's Shield which is at the bottom of his cloak. There is lots of Quarter Stitches around the outer edge of his shield so it is going to take me a while to get his shield done.
For some reason I can't get a good picture of the whole thing so I decided to just show this part of Fantasy Triptych - the Prince Panel. The Blue part of his cloak that you see..it is a combination of Blues and Purples. It is really neat when you actually see this in person.
I had a very relaxing day yesterday (Friday). I stayed in my Flannel Jammies all day yesterday, wore two pairs of fuzzy warm slippers, covered up with my Fleece Blanket, and stitched the entire day on Fantasy Triptych. I had a very lazy day yesterday and it felt so good to do this. I enjoyed every single minute of it.
Our weather has been bad the last two days, Snow, High Winds, and Extreme Cold Temps. As I am writing this it is only 16 above Zero F. Now that is cold.
I am going to try to go out this afternoon and defrost my car and see if my car doors will open up. If they don't open up on their own than I won't force them to open up. The problem with my car doors is that when it is this cold outside, and if I force them to open up...sometimes they won't go shut and than I have to drive to the car shop and have them fix the door so my door will go shut. It is a pain in the neck - I don't like my car doors. They don't open up or shut right. My car door isn't too bad but when it is this cold out my car door always won't go back shut once it is open. If I can't get my car doors to open up than I won't be going to church in the morning. It is only suppose to be 16 Above Zero F tonight. Brrrrr!
I am going to read my devotions for the day, than sit down and stitch on Fantasy Triptych.
Happy Reading, Stitching, Sewing, Quilting

I love the colors of the cloak. You are doing great. I hope you got your doors open fine.
WOW you got alot done.... keep up the great work.
Unbelievable. Just when I needed a punch in the arm! I have TW's 12 days of Christmas going, as well as a large William Morris -who uses every color known to DMC in the one design. And I was thinking I was going to start a new, small, one color project just to get something finished! Seeing your amazing progress is so encouraging. It is beautiful.
Must be nice to work with blue for a change....snowy day here. Keep warm!
