Go Round in Circles...

Lots of Jessicas in this band. I got about five done and had to rip them out because I was off by one thread. Now they're placed right and I'm putting this aside for the Christmas blitz. Expect to see it again in a month or six weeks. I do like working on it, though.

Chicken in Black

I feel so fowl about this. At least it's getting done, now if only I could hurry it along. There's a border around the whole thing too that I haven't even started. Will be working more on it tonight. I want to mail it home!

Boxtop

This is one of my Christmas projects. It's a boxtop and designed by Martina Weber. I've made a pretty good start on it.

Half a Melon

I didn't have to do all honeydew this week, but managed to extend the midnight blue all the way to the bottom of this somewhat-square. I am now truly past the halfway point, even on the honeydew fill in part. It's getting there, but it's going to take a break during the Christmas blitz. I hate to put it aside, but it's for me and it's already behind.

Nearly Halfway

I've got pretty much all of the blue on the top part of this corner before turning it done. Now to put the gold in and really get that area looking like it should. This one will be staying in my rotation. It's what I've worked on the longest, and deserves to be worked on more.

Nearly Arched

I am almost done with the left hand arch. I'd run out of the metallic thread I've been using, else it'd be finished. Found some, so it will be done next time I work on it, after the Christmas blitz. Had to do some frogging on the right side; the pots were all off by one stitch. That's fixed now, though.

Frogs

I'm working on this one every day now, doing two lengths of floss each time. It's getting there. Since this picture was taken Friday night, I've practically finished frog number two. My son still hasn't really seen it or figured out who it's for, but he is a teenaged male...
