Are you stitching along?
I decided to eliminate the bushes down by the tree trunks. Too busy.
I love the dark blue sky with the bright yellow sun!

(You probably talked about this a long time ago.) I have been holding my fabric when I embroider rather than a hoop. I have better control of the fabric and design. Do you use a hope when you embroider?
Great questions, so many options. For most surface embroidery I prefer to work in hand. It is flexible, portable and I prefer the control too. For this SAL I am working in hand. I can do very small bits of satin stitch this way but if planned to use satin stitch in large areas I would use a hoop. If your technique gives you the result you want then I believe it is the right technique for you!
