Temari for Little Extra

 I made this beginner temari for the Little Extras project of CyberStitchers.  As a serendipitous twofer, I managed to use it as a teaching temari in Bacioi!

Wobbly Houses

Hand painted shot glasses we found in Krakow.

Ros Markt

I came across this small fair in the Ros Markt in the last week of September.  Frankfurt is full of toddlers!  This place was a maze of munchkins and wagons.  It looked like they were all having a good time.

Just About

Just about done with the second pumpkin.  

At The Romer

This square was originally the heart of Frankfurt.  It's about a block from the Main.  It's also practically new, having been rebuilt after the second world war.  The day I took this set of photos there was a large number of Chinese tourists, all with cameras.  I ended up taking these because I was knocked over at the entrance to the Frankfurt Historical Museum by a large number of middle school aged children bowling me over.  Not fun.






Lots Of Turquoise

I am almost done with the turquoise cross sttiches.  The piece is almost the size it's destined to be, too.

New Cuppa

Lots of handmade pottery in Krakow.  I broke down and bought this beautiful cup while I was there.
