Minor progress on the actual building this week, but I did get some sky and sidewalk stitched.

Down to the Last

I'm on the last band now!  It's coming along pretty well, and if I spend any time at all on it, I'll finish it.

Beautiful Fossil

This fossil is a bit bigger than an old Kennedy half dollar, but it's very beautiful.  The ammonite was cut in half and polished brilliantly.  We picked it up at the market on Saturday.

Heart Start

It's a bunny heart from Gazette 94.  I'm working it with one strand of floss over two on 40 count Legacy Linen.  Wish me luck!

Silky Kimonos!

 Andreas found a kimono fabric seller on ebay, and the prices were very reasonable.  I picked these two.  They came a couple of weeks ago.  Aren't they pretty?  The pieces are approximately five feet long.

Five Left

Only five more squares left to go, all border ones.  The big central heart is complete!

How Much is that Doggie in the Window?

This is Darlene's winter block.  Each of her blocks had a different theme, and I picked the pooch.  Naked block here, after embellishment below.
