I have continued work on the pig today, but it's very boring to stitch. Most of the time I was stitching long rows of white stitches on a white background. Almost dozed off a few times it was so uninteresting.. Hopefully a couple more days and it will be done.


The sweep came and swept the chimney, checked the fire was in good condition, and did some scraping of the firebox to help me. I'll still have a lot to do, and I need to remove all the grate parts for cleaning too, but hopefully I'll be able to get the rest done over the next few weeks, a bit at a time.
