Sandcastle Update

Just a little update on the sandcastle.    I thought was hoping this was going to be a fast stitch.... Boy was I wrong!  I have all the blues in the water done...easy enough. But all the confetti in the sandcastle slowed me waaaaay down.   I can only imagine what it's going to be like when I start the little girl.

Oh, and in case you're wondering- it looks like a spill/stain on the bottom part of the castle, it's actually the way the pattern is worked.  I guess it's supposed to imitate the water coming up onto the beach.  I hope when I work the rest of the pattern, it blends in more.  To me, it looks like I had a booboo.
