Tentacles in Place

Back to the jellies!  I finished off the tentacles on the fifth, so now I get to start something new on it next time I pick it up.

Crazy January #6 - Chilly Wind

This is a somewhat small piece and autumnal in theme.  It's interesting to me, so I've tucked it into my bag to work on in spare moments.

Fun with Flags

It takes a lot of practice to wrestle the huge flags into submission and fluttering beauty.  Here's someone trying.






Back to Topside

Real progress- one side finished!  The top side is complete.  Now to work down  the diagonal again...

Crazy January #5 - Freedom Rings

Just plain cross stitch with a couple of buttons, but I need to do something patriotic.

Japanese Fabric

Timothy went to Japan for several weeks in November and December.  He gave me these fabrics for Christmas.  They're wonderful.  Some are silky and others are stiff.  Each is totally different, and I know I'll use them soon in something.  Thank you!

More of the Three Kings Parade

 More pictures of the first group to go.  They're not fully in costume, since this was pretty much a practice run.
