A Darker Shade of Brown


This week's work was mainly dark brown lowlights in various folds of the skirt. It extended the skirt down quite a way more.

Edging Along


Parts four and five of the kaleidoscope mandala are done; I finished them before starting the last part of Zentangle. I like the way the colors are looking and it's not a hard stitch. I won't be getting back with part six, though, until I'm done with the next part of See the Star and the first parts of Red and White Heart and Tam's Christmas Mystery. Lots of stitching going on in Marquoir.

On the Last Part


Yay, I started the last part of Zentangle! This means I'll have one of my Marquoir stitchalong pieces done. It's a good thing because two more started this month... now on to stitch and finish this.

Nearly Round


The back wheel is nearly complete. I was debating this last week on whether to just finish, but decided not to. I'm getting close to that point, though.

Crossing the Sides

I completed the second part this week and continued on with the third. There's still a lot of work to do, even though I'm on the last part. Lots of rice stitches left to do, along with the filigree on the four major sides.

Half a Palm is Better Than None


I'm almost done with the second line now. All it needs is the ret of the black and then the gold. And the second egg definitely has half a palm now. If only I can complete it...

Bedecking the Ladder


I'm still adding flowers to the ladder on this band. Lots more to go, but at least there's some progress.
