The Peacock's Tail

I start stitching before breakfast and only put it down at night when I’m too tired to continue working on it.  Blackwork is like that.  The repetition is soothing and the simplicity of using so few threads is appealing to my clutter-free, frugal nature.

Here’s what I’ve done with the peacock’s tail,
 
 
 
and the shadowy undertail.
