Still Filling In

The HAED drags on.  I'm still filling in a lot of red.

Over Half Way!

I finally covered up the last of the yellow line on the left, meaning that the top half of this piece is now complete.  Yay!

Tulips In My Garden

I can't take credit for any of these; they were all planted before we arrived.  On the other hand, I can enjoy them!  All these beautiful flame tulips started blooming in my garden about two weeks ago.  The tulips are just about gone now, but the daffodils and cherry blossoms are going strong.







Stem

I've started on the green stem of the yellow blob.  Because it was all in one area, the progress is pretty prominent looking!

Part One Done

I finished the first part and will start the second soon.  I prevaricated quite a bit about the chickens, but I hope they don't look quite so prominent in the overall sampler.

Easter Basket

Andreas got me a cute basket then filled it with candy and granola bars from around the house. 

Adding Some Grape Leaves

I spent a long time embroidering a big, huge leaf on Darlene's wine block.  I also added a smaller leaf and a quote from Robert Lewis Stevenson.  I hope she likes it.  Top is before; bottom is after.
