Pomarium 3/4 done!

The show must go on - Pomarium
I have continued the corner of Pomarium - the next one is a pale tree. I miscounted one stitch in one side and I have realised it only in the middle of the second tree, so I frogged the first and restitched, but finally it is done.

Pomarium Autumn corner
I have moved on my Pomarium and finished 3 motives: a branch, I see as an Autumn one with yellow leaves and apples, a filigree garden and some flowerstems with perle. I lost /used my perle for this part (gloriana petite princess perle #187) and it is extremely rare to find it in the shops. I have ordered from Casacenina in the summer, but they could not find it either, so I cancelled the order. Then I had my luck with crafty kitten, because she has it on stock, so I ordered it, and it was posted yesterday. I wonder having Christmas deliveries in the pandemia how long will it take to get it... Sometimes it is unbelievably quick, I have ordered Ottlite lamp in November from US and it took only 10days from hitting the buy button to be delivered to my doorsteps, but I think it was one of a kind. However, I have many other parts to continue with!

Fabric shopping part 2
I was waiting for a specific navy blue fabric arrived finally, and I managed to get it at least! Due to Covid there was a shortage of navy fabric in my favourite shop, all the dark fabric was in delay for weeks. I was asking the owners whether it has arrived, and the answer was "not yet". One afternoon I had a little free time, and I thought I will drop by to check some other fabric, and voila - the navy was sitting on the shelf -arrived just that morning!
I have bought some white yards as well, and some blues to add to the mix all 11.5metres added to the 15m bought in the summer - 26.5metres in total:
- 2m white-on-white
- 3m white-on-white slightly beige
- 1m white-on-cream
- 1m flowery cream
- 0.5 steelblue
- 0.5m medium blue
- 1m dark blue
- 2m navy
- 0.5 m flanel - I made some boards with this
