A Bell
This week I've been stitching on the cap for the second from the left jellyfish. It's on 40 count silk gauze and takes forever to show progress.

A Bunny Visit!
A six and a half foot tall Easter bunny hopped into our front yard and left these on the door. He then hopped away and jumped into the car his wife was driving. Thank you Florine and Saint!

Yay! It's Done!
After lots and lots of stitching, Herz Rot Weiss (in blue) is finally done! I have been stressing about finishing it and have been working on it every day for months. Now to take it back to the States in a couple months and get it framed.

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.
