More Tail

Working on more tail. This is the centerpiece of the whole design.

 

Looking Cute

No backstitching yet, but the red panda is beginning to look truly cute.

 

Working on the Spines

The wing spines are coming along, and I fill in the membrane as I go. I hope to get this third page done soon.

 

On to the Alphabet

Lots of backstitching still left on top, but time to start most of the cross stitches in the alphabet.

 

Texas Canvases

Time to start these. They've now been in my stash for nearly a year.

 

More Knoxville Food

Some sandwiches and some frito pie.

 

Sprawled Puppies

Puppies sprawled out on various items. And me joining them.

 

Entrances

Some of the entryways at Spilberk castle in Brno.

 

Bits of Grain

I swear this skirt will end. In the meantime, I am going slowly across. At least some wheat kernels are beginning to sprout.

 

Dragonfly Sashikoed

Sashiko, at least, seems to go fast. All the dragonflies are done and ready to be made into a pillow or a tote bag. I haven't decided which.

 

Still Starting the Little Building

This piece is so big that it never seems like I make progress until I get a large chunk of something done. This time it's a whole house that needs to marerialize.

 

Cavender's Haul

One of our Cavender's trips. Some of the earrings are not for me.

 

Fried Pickles

Fried pickles and biscuits. Because fried pickles is one of the best foods out there.

 

Happy Puppies

Mainly Carol in this set, surprisingly. And a happy Carol at that. So very unusual.

 

Brno's Castle

We walked up the hillside to Spilberk Castle on a cold winter day in Brno. The castle has a great view of the surrounds, of course, and has a modern art museum inside - something that seems common in castles in central Europe. There was also a part about the history of the castle. And there were puppies and Christmas decorations.

 

Butterflied

Yet another butterfly done. I seem to have a thing for butterflies. This one's now done and ready to be framed, though.

 

Armadillo Shell

Adding to the armadillo. Did you know the Polish name for armadillo is 'panczerka'? It means little tank. I think it's apt and cute.

 

Adding Hearts

Almost done with the flag and started some hearts. Just need the finial and some more hearts - then time for the background.
