Pink and Black

 Melina left Uruguay at the beginning of the month, but not without a farewell temari.  Here's what I made for her - her favorite colors are pink and black.  It'll go into her new house in Virginia when it's completed in September - along with some other temari I'll be making in the meantime!

Mausoleums and Cenotaphs

 These pictures show how crowded the Recoleta is, and how you can get glimpses inside the mausoleums.  Some are in very bad shape.  Others are very well kept up.

Back to the Skirt

Several little areas of skirt and banner got filled in this session.

Another Ball of Triangles

 Unplanned, I ended up making a whole series of temari with this pattern.  Here's the one I made for Florine, who wants to make a bunch of temari for a Christmas display. 

Green in the Graveyard

More pictures from Bueons Aires.  These are pictures of greenery in the Recoleta Cemetery.  It's got a lot of famous people in it, and is a beautiful place, even if very crowded with mausoleums and graves.

Blue Ball

 I taught this pattern last week, ergo I had to stitch along with my student and make the design for her to see as it progressed.  One of the benefits or drawbacks of bilingual education.  Anyway... it's interlocking triangles and is the same design that I did a few temari ago.  I used Watercolours thread for it, and think it came out pretty cool.

TARDIS Spotting

 We found a TARDIS by the port of Buenos Aires... right by the restaurant we ate at.
