A Bit Odd
Well, I started this last year with Sticklounge, then got busy finishing up a couple of other projects. This one languished. It's done in a floss that is no longer available, so I will work on it a bit more, squaring it up, and then declare it done.

Keys!
We were in Cuidad Vieja last Saturday and strolled through the market in Plaza Matriz. Found some keys and bought a few, along with some tokens from early last century. Now to decide who gets to use them in projects...

Red Tentacles
Sometimes I think a designer puts stuff in to teach a new technique. I ran into that very thing with this on my last stitching session. There are two kinds of tentacles on the second jellyfish from the left. The first is whipped outline stitch, and the second is couched wire. The wire was superfluous, I believe. It was a pain to work with and did not add much dimensionality at all. Anyway, it's done now! On to working on the next jellyfish for a bit.

Simple Shells
I haven't decided if I'm going to use these bracelets as jewelry or as embellishments. Bought them on Punta Ballena. They're pretty.
