Cray January #12 - Pink Crystal

A piece I could start and finish in one day!  So I did.  It was quick and made a pretty little ornament.  It made me feel good to finish one, too.

Last Asian Block

 This is the last block for me to work on in the Asian round robin.  As you can see, Peggy's block doesn't have very much room left after all the other ladies did their wonderful work on it.

I added a pagoda, a couple of seam treatments, and some charms, then sent it on home.  It's with Peggy now!

Crazy January #11- Hannah's Hummingbird Knot Garden

Here's a kit that's been sitting in my stash for quite a while, so what better opportunity to start it than the Crazy 15?  It uses Madeira threads instead of DMC, and the packages are weird to get used to.  Other than that, things are going fairly smoothly, though I'd always rather use something like Treasure Braid than blending filament to give sparkle.

Necklace for Mary

Andreas made this necklace and earring set for Mary F.  We gave it to her yesterday, and she loved it.

Crazy January #10 - Jubilation

This piece is a little diamond boxtop.  I've got the center done and am working outward.  It's a small design with a lot of different counted stitches.
