This was from Stitchy Box and was mailed after the start of advent, so I received it around the 20th. Kind of disappointing. More disappointing, I also ordered the Christmas Bash box - and received it busted open with nearly everything missing. She has agreed to send me a bash box in the spring. We will see.

Quilted Ball
When we went to the Christmas Market in Brno, we found a quilt guild selling things! And one of the things I bought was this pretty ball. Turns out Brno is the center of quilting and patchwork in Europe. Who knew?
One Last Mystery Box
One last mystery box. I got some things I really like, and some not so thrilled with. But that's how it goes.
Berlin Museum Outside
This was a history museum, but it was mainly closed. Their big exhibit was The Road Not Taken - and was a bit about turning points in German history. We thought that would be interesting, but were disappointed because they just examined the turning points and did not get much into alternative histories. Very disappointing. Great concept, poor execution.

Prague Box
It's a good thing I bought this for the tin box. There were like four candies in it. But at least I have the cute box.

Another Purse Purchase
This was tote bags as a mystery. I really like the light blue color, and it's the one that's zipped. Yay!

Massive Skirt
Still working on this massive skirt. Got a bit more done in the middle of it. Lots of the same colors over and over.
Museum, Mausoleum, and Church on the Same Road
Walking down Unter den Linden looking at the sights. The day was beautiful but a bit windy and chilly.

Ukraine Support in Berlin
This was the only place we saw the Ukrainian flag displayed prominently in Germany. Or France. It's sad.

Almost Invisible
You can't really see the work I've been doing, but it's there. The stems and leaf veins are beginning to take shape. Lots left to do. It's getting worked on, at least.
Edge of the Building
Picking this up after a long hiatus. I have less than four pages to go, and it's time to finish this. Anyway, some stitching along the right edge to get the gray building some substance.
