You just want to be grateful it's not metallic thread! ๐Ÿ˜…

I've managed progress on two whole things this week. Ocean Wonder has a somewhat creepy octopus missing half his tentacles and also his face:

And the Steampunk World Map is looking decidedly "without NZ" but I swear I know it exists, the pattern has it on, it's just coincidence that this was my last stopping point ๐Ÿ˜†

There is a world statistics website that jumped on the meme about NZ always missing from maps so they took it to the next level and started placing it on random spots like west of Australia.

Reminds me of when people make maps about Eurovision statistics, and obviously it's focused on the general Europe area, but then they just stick Australia in the sea wherever it'll fit ๐Ÿ˜†
