Corners Done

Corners are all done!  Now all I have to do is fill in the four sides and put a charm in the middle.

Tops Of Letters

Still filling in tiny spots to gt the rows done.  I completed four rows that way this week.  Definite progress is being made, but I wish I were done!

Inside The Churchyard

The churchyard is pretty big.  It has a small house for the local priest and his wife and a large courtyard.  Evidently they keep a cat and a dog, too.



Adding More Shadow

The trees and shadows are filling in nicely.  The blotch at the bottom is very close to the bottom of the design, so I'm definitely nearing the end.

Second Blob Coming Up

The second blob is started.  I guess this means I'm really making progress.  It feels good to get closer to being done.

Easter Eggs

These eggs were for sale at the exhibition center where we paid to go to the monastery.  They were made in the village and are beautiful.  Completely hand beaded with a wooden core.  Together they were 160 lei (about $14).

Orhei Vechi - Church Approach

This priest is walking out of the church with his wife, and the other pictures, along with this one, were taken on the approach to the church.  The day was clouding over.
