All But One


All the points but one are done on the compass. It's coming along pretty well, though after this picture I saw a mistake rather far up in the lower curve below the W. So I spent a lot of today so far repairing it.

Filling in the Blanks


The second line's no longer, but it's more filled in after this week. On the first panel, I've gotten all the first row of color done and am working on the second and third.

Can You See Me?


The color I've been stitching most with this week on See the Stars is the Fleckstone that blends in with the fabric. I've had to be really careful with the backstitching because it's so hard to see.

Back to the Bellies



It's been a while since I've worked on this - I had to get it to Uruguay, after all. I did this week, though! I added more to the top of the second jellyfish. That part's almost done, and it's back into my (new) rotation.

Whatever Comes Back


Four months late, my Whatever Goes round robin was returned. I like the way it looks, although I've never had a verse on one of my blocks before. Thank you to all the ladies who worked on it. Now I need to figure out how to finish it into a larger project.

My First Ribbons Here


I went into the local merceria in the mall this past week and decided to splurge a little bit. I bought these three ribbons. The middle one's got metallics, but the outer two have beads. The one on the left is all wooden beads. It'd be great, I thought, to cut it up for flowers on a block.

Diamonds Down the Middle


I completed the diamonds in the middle and their Jessica stitches this week. There's a bit more to do in this middle area, but it's already standing out pretty well.
