1/2 a sleigh is better than no sleigh

Sitting by the window to get the natural light works except that I live where it is over 100 each day. I can only sit near the window in the morning.

I managed to get the blades and bottom portion of the sleigh mostly complete. It is actually beginning to look like something. If I could only stitch using this photo, it makes the small xs so much clearer than in real life.
