Last of the Inaugural Parade

 We did leave the parade early; they were still going strong.







Just a shot of the condition of the street - lots of confetti around.

Small Bits

Small bits of progress on this.  I have the second acanthus outlined and the third started.  There is progress on the upper left corner too.  The buildings on the upper edge are done, and I am working on the background there now.

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...
