Bibi's coming along. This week I did some white again and black. The black line going down is the front of Bibendum's leg on the bicycle. I'm definitely over halfway on him now, and the big white guy's end is in sight.

Gerry's Gypsy Rose
I finished another crazy quilt round robin block yesterday. It's for the Anything Goes Traditional round robin, and is Gerry K's block. I brought her block and one other on my trip to Kosovo. This top picture is after Lisa's wonderful work on it.

See More Stars
I started part three of See the Stars this week, and it's getting a bit more colorful. There's a -lot- to part three, though, so it's putting me behind on some of the other pieces I've got the stitchalong deadlines on. Not to mention my other stitching.
It's still cold here, but at least it was sunny today. The daffodils and tulips are coming up on the embassy grounds. Hopefully the snow won't kill them.

A Surprised Start
I started this a bit back, but wanted to keep it secret, so I didn't post it. It's the beginnings of a compass rose, and since the person it's for took the picture, I think it's safe to post. The fabric is a Silkweaver solo and the floss is from Vikki Clayton.

Four Times
I've added almost all the bling to Camelot. Most of it was done while I was traveling to Kosovo. Five hour layovers allow you to do needlepoint! I did get some strange looks in the Air France first class lounge in Paris - first for being one of very few women, and then second for the needlepoint. I ignored them. It's a nice, if cold, day out here. The sun's out and it's warming up well. Maybe we'll have a good weekend and can go out exploring!

A Few More Lines
I added a few more lines to Bibendum last week. It was a full two lengths of thread, but he's fat! I'm definitely halfway done with him now, and next time I work on him, you'll see some outline leading to his bicycle.
It's another chilly day here in Pristina. At least it's not outright snowing, but the sky's gray and cloudy.
