A Little Project

Sticklounge has a quick project going on - three weeks, three parts, and suitable for an ornament.  Here's my picture with the first two parts done.

Pins Found

When we bought the keys, we also found these pins.  The ship is very pretty filigree, and the bar pin just has some cute fake opals.  I know I can find uses for them.

One More Twist

One more twist done on the  critter, and a few more rows down the pattern.

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.

A-Spiring

I'm almost done with another building.   The main part left to do on it is the spire...

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.
