Make Stuff May #3: First Snow by The Drawn Thread

 

Months Of Jodyri

The top was my advent calendar from Jodyri. The rest are bimonthly shipments of my floss subscription.

 

Ia Kit

My goal is to make myself a shirt. I -will- do this.

 

Roadside Shrine

A little roadside shrine lit up by candles at twilight.

 

Six Months Of Ipsy

Lots of Ipsy over the past several months. This is an every other month subscription now, so I should be getting less.

 

All Mos Eisley

My star wars sampler is done. Will get it framed once we find a place in Warsaw.

 

Ink Circles Stuff

Things Tracy has sent me over the past six months. I've used the stickers and have just started using the sulky thread. Have started the kits at the bottom, too!

 

Last Sunset

Andreas' last sunset of the trip. 

 

Mystical Cosmos Done

Welp, this is done. It looks a bit like a Victorian fanciful forest. I will probably make it into a tote bag when I can finally sew with my machine...

 

Still Flagging

Got some red and gray done on the flag. Bit yet to go.

 

Honey

Andreas is constantly amused that my name means honey in Macedonian. As witnessed by this honey package...

 

Hearts

Andreas' mom Betsy sent me these hearts last year. They're a quilting project for finding things randomly. I have left hearts in Kosovo, Italy, Greece, and Albania. I will be leaving the last one when we leave this place in Meteora.

 

More Meteora Sunsets

Sunset over the monasteries and mountains. We hope to catch another tonight. Last night was a wash due to thunderstorms.

 

All Five Flags

All the flags are finished. True progress.

 

Handwarmers

Andreas gave a set to me and to Leonora. These are so going to come in handy in Poland.

 

It's A Scam

This bracelet was "given" me by someone wanting money in Athens. Once he had it on my wrist, he demanded money. We didn't give it to him. Supposedly, he was promoting a drum performance later that evening. This was the same trip where we had several pickpocketing attempts - all unsuccessful until someone got Andreas' phone when he was out doing photography without me.

 

Grapey

Grapes are done, getting to work on something else.

 

Looking Away

Looking away from most of the monasteries in these shots. Pretty countryside the other way, too.
