It's Dragon Time

Moving along on the Asian round robin, I have Sarma's block.  She asked for a dragon, so I made one.  It took a lot of time to do all those chain stitch lines!  I am not quite pleased with the  wings, but I think the rest came out pretty well.

So Tired Of Brown

I have promised myself that next week I will do all the extra counting and start some real color with the peacock's head!

Starting The Fill

You can't really see it, but I've done a bit more on the right - it was all light blue gray. I also did a bit more gray and green.  Little bits of building are looking more full.

A Huge Thank You

For the past few weeks, I've been remiss in responding to emails.  It's finally spring, and I've been going out more.  That's not a real excuse, though!  I should have written Betsy a thank you note nearly two weeks ago when I received all this lovely stitchy stuff!  I didn't, though, and for that, I apologize.  THANK YOU BETSY!  I love all this stuff and already have plans for some of it.  Andreas was even going through it and saying I could use this trim for that purpose and that lace for something else.  He never does that.

It's all beautiful, and thank you again for remembering me on your trip to Philadelphia!

Tiny Bit Of Bling

There is now a little bit of green metallic on the bottom left as I get the corner done.

Most Of A Tree

Most of the tree is done now, and I'm halfway through the sampler.  Still have a lot to go!
