Munich Medieval Market

 This market, although small, had a lot of unique items - most of them reminiscent of the past.  Andreas found an archery booth; there were a few medieval costumers.  I found a stamp from a stamp booth.  There were a few bookbinders, too.  Overall, I think this market needs to be expanded!

One And A Bit

I've got the first of the two halves done.  Now it's off to the second!  I hope to have this done really soon.

Comets!

I found these cute little laser cut comets at an ornament stand in Munich.  I'm thinking I can use them in crazy quilting.

Clock Love Strikes Again

 I love clocks, and so.... here are three pictures of the same clock on the New Town Hall.

My Student's Work - So Proud!

 I started teaching Carolina and Ana in July of this year.  Unusual for Moldovans, neither had done any needlework since elementary school.  They both took to it like ducks to water, and a couple of weeks ago, Carolina brought some of her work over for my husband to photograph.  I'm so proud of her!  They're all gorgeous, and she's done so well with different patterns, making up her own designs, and picking great color combinations.  She's getting better than I am!




Little More Sparkly

The week I was in Munich, this didn't get much work.  I didn't bring it with me because beads are a pain when you're moving around.  I did get a little stitch time with it after we got back.  It's just a little more sparkly now.

Christmas Lights

 At the Viktualenmarkt and then the main square at night.  The lights we so very pretty to look at, even if it was cold!
