A Purchase
Something else from the Prado - a beautiful belt loop. I'll be hanging it on my belt while camping to hold my knife and fork set. Probably will also use it with my Scottish outfit. Anyway, I think it's neat!

Steampunked
Due to a technical failure, I don't have a before picture of this block. The only area not previously covered was the green on the left, so I did it. I made spring flowers, added a butterfly, and did a bit of seamwork. I hope Betty likes it when she gets it.

My Mate Cup
It was decided that we would get mate cups before we leave in July. I picked this one out at the Semana Criolla. It's super nice because it's porcelain-lined, meaning no curing it and it won't go bad. I like it.

Two-and-a-Bit
I'm getting really close now - down to two and a bit more squares. I'm -so- ready to have this done.

Local F3
There was a "Semana Criolla" at the Prado last week. Lots of local products, a rodeo, a gaucho song competition, and so on. One item they had outside one of the buildings was a race car! This car is used in F3 races in Uruguay, Argentina, and Brazil, and is sponsored by one of the local shoe companies.

Two of Four
I managed to get a whole leaf done in one session this week. The second gingko leaf is done, so two more on the upper area, and one in the cut out.
