With my fondness for overdyed floss, is it a wonder I switched out a lot of the original colors of this for overdyed? I'm liking the results so far. This is still part three, and there's a bit more of it to do before Tuesday, as the new part comes out on Wednesday. I should have it done easily.
We didn't go anywhere this weekend; my host got sick, and though he wanted to travel, I refused to let him do so with a fever. Instead, we went over to someone else's house and played Pax Britannica. It was interesting, being the US in the late part of the nineteenth century. Yes, I'm a real geek. I play war games. I doubt many of you do, because it's one of those rare traits. I did work on this during the Congresses of Europe where the US wasn't invited. Got quite a bit of stitching done.

This is looking wonderful. I love the fibers you're using for this. And I'm a fan of the game Risk - when I was younger we used to have Friday night games lasting into the wee hours of the night. That was when I was younger (read - without kids). My kids aren't into it that much, but he sure loves those games on the Xbox.
Beautiful updates of all your projects. Just wanted to let you know that I do stop by (try to read weekly). Keep the updates coming.
Hi Deb! Try Settlers of Catan. It's a great game for all ages, but very, very Euro in its outlook (no one's allowed to directly attack anyone else). Game play is an hour to an hour and a half, and there's even an online version! What's really sad is that the organizer on Sunday managed to find seven gaming geeks in the embassy community to play. The American embassy community here is -maybe- seventy people.
Thank you Cathy! I hope to get some pictures of Pristina up soon, too.
