This was Theresa's Asian night block before I did anything. Below it is finished. The main work I did on it was the paisley and the dragon character. The rest took less time but filled up the block and brought out its character more. I hope she likes it.

New Stitchalong
Sticklounge started a new stitchalong - The Mighty Oak by Daniela Tangelder. I didn't really need to start another project, but I did anyway. Here's my beginning.
Self Storage
Kvint, like other distilleries, keeps samples of its products from previous years. This is where they keep them. This cellar was built in 1974, and is full. The door in the picture below leads to another, similar cellar. They use these samples for training purposes and quality control. Some in this cellar date back to the early 1960's.

Minimal Progress
I managed to fit in another stitch session on this piece. Finished up the middle square and started filling it in. Perhaps I'll be able to work more on it soon.

The Bottling Workshop
Lots and lots of boxes of vodka and cognac, but no pictures of bottles in motion. They only actually bottle about once a week, and our day was not that day. For anything over 25 years old, they hand bottle. Everything else goes down the line.

Four Rows Done
I get to add a new (non-brown) color when I've completed seven rows. It's coming along, but still all brown. At least the branches are filling out nicely.
