Lone Star Temari

Yet another holiday temari.  I decided to play around with a star design.


Lunch in La Paloma

During our trip to Punta del Este, we looked for whales.  Supposedly they were out there, but we never saw any.  At least we had a decent lunch in La Paloma, a tiny resort town on the Atlantic coast.  Andreas had a burger (above) and I had a chivito  (below).  Both were, obviously, huge.  The fries were decent. too.

Entry's Done

With the completion of the second plant, the entry's done.  Yay.  Now on to more windows and shutters and windows and shutters...

Last of the Costumes


All the costumes were evidently designed by this guy.

A view from above.


All Sent Off

Every year, Crazy Quilting International has a cracker exchange.  They're supposed to be long cylinders.  Needless to say, mine aren't.  There's something inside of them that makes it impossible for them to be aught but squares.  So... two blocks pieced and one beautiful Christmas topiary panel are all on their way to the States to be opened at Christmas.  I hope the recipients like the goodies inside.

Work on Baumchen

Still working on my two color  version of the Jean-Louis Grandsire tree.  It's coming along pretty well and I like the color combination.  Of course, as of this week, some people are totally done.
