Something white; haven't decided yet. I'm going to test out my different thread weights on some scraps and decide what I like best.

First WIP!

I will probably add one whenever I finish a page, or once a week. It's exciting! I've been planning this one for so long it feels great to get to work on it.

Finished the first page, plus some extra to get the full words up top and the width of the computer.
