Brick by brick

I've finished needle-blending the sky behind the Les Eclaireurs lighthouse. I had begun adding DMC floss #3841 to my formula, combining it with DMC floss #3325. By the time I reached the bottom on the left side, I was using two plies of each shade.

Then I continued brick-laying for the tower using perle cotton. The higher profile of this thread is making the tower stand out nicely from the sky.

There's still a lot of scenery to be worked, so stay tuned!
