What Color is the Mississippi?

Just so you don’t think I’ve forgotten to keep you “in the loop,” here is my Sally (yes, I’ve decided to name her) as she is this evening. I’m actually much farther along than it looks; I’m struggling with how to do the river. When I built such big design walls, I never thought I’d be overlapping like this. It’s reminiscent of a handbag; no matter what size, it is always full.
