It's Now Beed

This little bee is ready for a frame. Or something.

 

Adding Wheat Ears

A bit washed out in this photo, but still working on the skirt - and some wheat ears. Means the end is coming. Eventually.

 

Hedged

Now to get this into its final three dimensional form.

 

Frog Belly

One more belly done and working on the legs now. Lots of leg to do, though. 

 

July Sewscription

Bits of fabric and some clips! Not thrilled with the colors, as usual.

 

Brunch with Kerry

Went to brunch with Kerry at this restaurant in Shirlington. Food was good. Company was better.





 

Puppy Poses

All the puppies in all kinds of poses during a normal day.





 

Brno Christmas Lights

Pretty tree and ferris wheel in Brno. Crowded around the tree, though. The market was broken up around the old town, with penny packets of booths in different squares.

Ribbons from Hobby Lobby

Ribbons for finishing projects. I will probably have a hard time with finishing in 2026, though, as it looks like there will be at least two long term trips.

 

Another Dog Done

This still isn't in my rotation, but I do take it on trips. I now have four of about a dozen dogs done. I will get there.

 

Window Frames

Window frames for something different. Will be working on sidewalk next.

 

Flying Away

A butterfly all ready to be hooped and given away.

 

Founding Farmers Dinner with Friends

Before FACT training, we were in DC for a couple of days. Had dinner with friends before heading out. This was our first time to Founding Farmers. We will probably go again next year.







 

More Grayson and Chad

Boys both in comfort mode and begging mode. Always good.







 

Brno Market Crowd

The crowd in Brno last year was huge. Part of it was because there was a Battle of Austerlitz re-enactment going on plus a youth hockey tournament. I'm sure a few were just tourists like us, too.

Pinky

Lots of pink for a Halloween design.

 

Changing the Word

Changed the word her back to the original... Californian woke-ism by the designer. At least it was an easy change.

 

Bee-ing Done

Had a couple of reverse stitching sessions, but this is back on track now.

 

A Few More Window Panes

More window panes on the left and a bit more arch in the middle.

 

Quilting Stash

Picked up while in the US and time to quilt. If I can find the time. I've been working on finishing an old project at this point.
