Still Seeing Stars

Back to the See the Stars.  It's been quite a while, but it's still looking good.

Still on the First

All these bits and it's -still- just the first part.  At least I like the colors.

Another Round Robin - Beading

The theme of this round robin is "Basically Beaded" and she sent it to me already partially done.  I was the first person to work on it, and she asked that it -only- have beads.  My work is below.  

Kathy's English Garden Blocks

This is my first block set to work on for the English Garden round robin, and it's Kathy's.  She picked to put silkies on her blocks, and padded them underneath.  This was a real challenge for me, as I never, ever use silkies.  The rest of the block was really restful, which helped a lot.  My work is in the picture below.  I hope she likes it.

More on Colonia

If you look closely in this photo, you can see a sunbathing doll.  This is an example of one of the houses in the old area of Colonia.

 I just loved the pattern of this door.

 We fed this dog our leftover scraps after lunch.  It was obviously injured and had been resting near the restaurant.  It came over and found us to thank us after it finished the scraps several minutes later.

Eastern redbud blossoms.

 And a couple of maps of the city in tile.

Filling In

This week was spent filling in some holes and getting the petals more done.  They're coming along, if very slowly.

Another Birthday Present

Timothy gave me this lovely leatherbound book for my birthday.  It feels great and I love it.  Thank you!
