Of the Seventh Part


The seventh part is done now. I have yet to start part eight, as I've been working on See the Stars. It's on my list to do as soon as that is done. I'm still two parts behind.

Workshop of the Second Part


I'm getting this done, starting the second of three parts. It has some cross stitches, but a lot more rice stitches. The end is in sight.

Blocked Again

This was the final block for me to work on from the Anything Goes Traditional round robin. Wendy just had a color theme, but as you can see, the block was pretty full of fans and such when I got it.

The top right and bottom left were rather naked when I got it, so that's what I filled. She's already got it home now, too. I have one block at home yet to do unless some have arrived in the mail in the past few days. I don't know because I've been on a trip. I get home on Tuesday evening.

Coming Along


I made progress on both the line and the egg this week. The line's got its bottom blue edge and the egg's got more acanthus leaf done. I'm almost halfway done with the egg.

Stairsteps


I've gotten the outline of the middle element done; now it's time to get everything else around it started. With this part complete, though, I shouldn't have to worry about having things out of place by much - I hope.

Back to Brown

One last brown week, it seems. I did a lot of brown next to the completed house and got most of the other brown houses done. it seems several houses will finish quickly and together - hopefully somewhat soon.

Thank you Cindi!

Remember I made a tin for a tin swap last month? Well... Cindi drew my name to send one to, and she made a beautiful one! This is it, in four pictures. Thank you so much, Cindi! I love it.

She also put some goodies inside. I don't tat, so the tatted things are such a beautiful mystery to me. I'm sure I'll find a use for them. Thank you for the motifs and threads and beads and thread holder!
