On to the LeMans

Our reason for going to the Grand Prix wasn't the Indycar race - it was the American LeMans.  LeMans is an endurance race, and there are several classes of cars on the track at the same time.  The race was on the 3rd of September in the afternoon.  









In the Mail

This is now done and off to its future owner!  It was mailed a week ago.  For some reason, outgoing mail is only sent from here on Thursdays.  The ornament was a quick enough stitch, and I think it came out pretty well.  I hope Ing likes it when it gets to her.

More Leaf

Still working on leaves.  At least they're getting bigger and I am getting more comfortable with working basketweave from a chart.

Springtime Daisy

This wrapped ball had been staring at me for a couple of months.  I didn't know what to do with it with this color.  It reminded me of the spring sky, so... I made it into a spring flower.  I think the daisy came out pretty well for a first attempt at making up my own pattern.

Wheels Go Round in Circles

More pictures of practice.  I think Andreas was getting better with practice, too, on taking the pictures.








Started Part Three

Seems like today's postings are about mini-milestones. Part three is now started on my berlinwork sampler, which means I'm on the last part given and finally past where I messed up. The tassels look cute so little there, don't you think?

Second Section Done

Yay, I'm done with the second section now.  I like the extra texture of the stitching on it, and will do another textural stitch below it, too.
