Lunch At The Loft

Before the freezer hit the atmosphere a couple of weeks ago, we went to lunch at The Loft, which is a nice cafe a couple of blocks from the embassy.  I had salad; Andreas had soup.  We both also had pizza.  The salad was more than enough to fill me up - you can see how big it is.  Pizza was wrapped up and taken home for a later lunch.  All was good and the service was excellent. 


Crazy #19 - Texas Heart

Yet another small start - Texas heart.  It looks like I got a good portion of the design done.  Hope is that I will get a lot of these small starts done in the year to come.

On The Edges

Little bits on this one, too.  I started on the edges of the bottom and got some more backstitching done on the side.

Crazy #18 - Beginner Whitework Ornament

Of course I'm not doing it in white.  It's got a good start on it, though!

Back and Forth

Little bits of this and that this week.  Bits of tree and sidewalk, and even some windows.

A Few More Blues

The second area here is a combination of  two silks from The Silk Mill.  I just couldn't find a single color I was satisfied with against the black.

Crazy #17 - Stacked Pumpkins

A bit of the top done and not much more.  On the other hand, it'd been languishing in my stash for a couple of years and will be pulled out now for sure into the rotation eventually.
