See the Star Done

It's done!  It took two and a half years, nearly, but it's finished.  I think it looks good and I will be making it into a cushion, I believe.

Next to Last...

I'm finally almost done with Inaugural parade pictures and can start on Llamadas parade pictures next week.  Here's a garish murga; most of the rest  of the photos are of Tronar de Tambores, one os the top comparsas (drums and dancing girls groups).  The little girl below still has energy to do cartwheels after midnight....

Since I got See the Star done, it's time to work on another stitchalong with Sticklounge.  So it's back to Quaker Star...

Done with the Middle

Finally,  I'm done with the middle building on the right!  Now on to the smaller ones on that side...

Trash Strike and Poor Male Dancers

There was a trash strike here in December.  It was awful, with trash strewn all over the street.  This, of course, has become fodder for Carnaval.  One murga's gone a bit far in their depiction of it.

I don't know who was the costume designer for Feelings, a revista (dance group), this year, but I do pity the male dancers who had to wear these particular costumes...

On the Backside

I've started filling in the rest of the square.  The end is in sight!

Fourth Rectangle Done

It's not quite to the pattern in the chart, but the fourth rectangle of City Walk is complete.
