Another Biscornu for SAS

We've been told we're a bit short on biscornu for SAS 30 in June, so I've decided to make a third one.  I think the colors are a lot better on this one than the last.

Beer for my Horses

Two special pictures from the Gaucho Festival.  When we saw the tableau, we thought of the Toby Keith song...

And washed to make them look even more like the song...

More than Halfway

I am now officially past the halfway point on the cross stitches for this.  Yay!  It means I'm making progress, and I feel like I might be able to finish the whole thing by September.

Flowering Out

I've got all the green cross stitching done now, and it's on to the purple flowers.  Coming along, finally.

Lunch Time at the Gaucho Festival

Kids hanging out in period dress.  They look like they wear it daily.

Park your horse anywhere...

Entrance to one of the more permanent compounds in the festival area.

Cooking lunch on the parilla. 

Got knives?  We actually looked for some decent ones, but all of them are Chinese stamped steel with fancy hilts.  It seems that's all that is available here.

A different view of lunch.  Looks like pork.

A Bit More Pink

This week has been filling in the outlines.  I've gotten a bit more pink into the petals, but it doesn't look like all that much progress.

Half a Heart

I got the second part of the heart done this week.  It's at the halfway point, so I should have a finish within the next two weeks.  I like the way this floss looks on the blue background.
