There's a Word There

A word here, a word there, and pretty soon you have a conversation.  I don't think there's going to be a whole conversation on this ornmanent, but it needs to be done by the end of the month.  So it's going to be bumped up to getting worked on daily.

Going Down

I'm now starting on the lower leg of this particular upside down L.  Must mean I'm making progress, right?

Square for Now

Jubilation looks square for now, but it'll eventually lose its four way symmetry and only become bilaterally symmetrical.  I am definitely going to work this pattern again in different colors - later.

Dinner Out at MallDova

Yes, the local mall in town is really named MallDova.  It's full of shops from around Europe and several restaurants.  We went to the Seasons Bistro on the bottom floor and had a very nice dinner a couple of weeks ago.  They even had caprainas on the menu, but they're still not as good a real South American ones.  Andreas wasn't feeling adventurous, so he had a plain teriyaki grilled chicken.  I had chicken soup and lamb kuvarma.  Both were good, though the lamb was slightly dry.  We'll definitely be going back.


Darken the Leaf

Another color added to the leaf.  I wasn't sure about this when I started, but it's beginning to shape up into something nice.

A Bit of Swirl, A Bit of Stamen

Two of three fruits are almost done, and the stamen of the top flower is started.

Purse Project Update

While traveling I managed to do some work on my purse project, The Sweetheart Tree's "Love Square".  I'm beginning to fill two of four in.
