More Purple, More Cream

Added more purple to the peacock and more creamy background on the left.  It's beginning to actually look like something.

WWII Era Transport

This plane was used in World War II for airborne, troop transport, and cargo.  Looks kind of dumpy and small by today's standards.

Second Kogin Done

Same as the first, but with lugana as the ground and Wildflowers as the thread.  I think I like it better on the lugana, despite the colors on the canvas being more to my liking.

Fixed Wing Doing Tricks

 A small fixed wing doing some tricks.  I'm sorry I don't have more information, but slow processing and losing the plane cheat sheet kind of hinders my memory.


One Kogin Done

I finished Janet Perry's Kogin Sampler in the original canvas size.  It is all ready for the CyberStitchers meeting and already gifted.

Back To Fencing

The right hand fencing is almost done now.  I've also added more to the inside area of the fencing, too.

The New Ka-52 Russian Helicopter

 We got to see a demo flight of the Russian Ka-52 at the Paris Air Show.  This is a new Russian attack helicopter, and it was pretty impressive with what it was doing.  The Russians also have a pretty novel design in that they have two sets of rotors on the main pole.  The rotors rotate in opposite directions.  They also don't have a rear stabilizing rotor.
