Pink and Plaques

All the plaques are done and I'm thankful that I didn't work with just celedon this week. I added in some pink. I still plan on finishing this this summer, and it will probably be my big push project while I'm in Europe.

Blogging and Traveling at the Same Time

Still plugging along on the fourth corner. The top leg is about done and this is going in my carry on along with the dragonfly buckle. The top leg is only missing one color of blue and more gold now. Maybe I can find some time and lack of tiredness to work on it as I travel.

Yes, this is a pre-written blog entry. I'm writing it on Tuesday so it will publish on Thursday while I'm still somewhere over Europe or stuck in an airport, probably Vienna.

Hair and Face

This week I added more hair and face along with some more blue on the flag. Not as much done as usual, but it's been a busy busy week.

Poofy Center

I did a lot of French knots in the middle of this and it made the flower just pop. I took it to my chapter meeting last night, and the ladies remarked on how curly the knots in the center were. It's coming along and will be going to Europe with me.

Fourth Mystery Part

This is the mystery with the fourth part done. It's already in Europe waiting for me! I mailed some stuff last week, including this after taking a picture, since I'm all caught up with it and the next part doesn't come out until Thursday. Now it's all waiting for me.

Frogs Done

It still amazes me how the outlining on these turns them from blobs of color into frogs. This is the project I had to get done before I left, and one I'd only started two weeks ago. I got it done, though!

Hearts in Outline

This week I'm back to green colors and all backstitching. It's coming along; I have all the big hearts outlined on band five. After doing the hearts, though, I'm thinking of redoing them in a darker green, the medium color used in Band 1. Then again, I might not. I'll have to see if they get more visible when I add the flowers.
