More of the Mystery
I worked more on the German Group Mystery this week. I love this color combination. For some reason, it reminds me of antique things. Anyway, I made quite a bit of progress on part five, even though I didn't quite finish it.

Change to Celtic
I am the first to work on Faye's Celtic block. It's a great big block! After seeing it, I decided it looked like the countryside. In Ireland and Scotland especially, crosses dot the area, so I got ambitious. I put a Celtic Cross on it. The lower picture shows the progress as of last Saturday, when I was couching it down.
The Southern Sky
When we went to the Gaucho Festival, we stayed out in the countryside. It was so dark the stars popped in the night sky. Here are some pictures of the stars of the southern hemisphere. To actually see them you'll have to zoom in the pictures though.
This one has something streaking across the lower right corner. We also saw either the ISS or shuttle go across the sky, but that was before the pictures were taken.
Just a longer exposure on this one.
And this is a picture of the Milky Way. It's gorgeous.

Saturday Stash
We went to the market last week and I picked up a few things. The gauze, though, is from the drug store. It's still stash! It's to cover plastic eggs to make temari eggs.
On the Way to Tuacarembo
The first weekend of March we went to the Gaucho Festival in Tuacarembo. When we stopped for doggie break at a gas station, this group of motorcyclists stopped too. They're from Brazil but could fit in in their excess at any motorcycle rally in the US...
