Finally Framed

The photo's kind of dark, but you can still see how nice Andreas' compass rose looks all framed up.  The frame is copper-brushed wood, and there's a double mat with some fancification in it.  Now to find a place to hang it.  Thanks MolDeco.

Artifacts

 Life and death in the aftermath of D-Day in these photos of the museum.

Country Garden Sprouted

 This is the block I sent out for my country garden round robin.  The center is the crewelwork pansy I made last year.  On the bottom is what the ladies did to it.  I think it came out pretty spiffy, don't you?  One of my goals for this year is to use more of my embroidery in larger finished pieces.

Bit Of Roof

A little more roof done, and I'm less than twenty rows from turning to the next page.  Yay!

Blending Inside And Outside

 A lot of these photos show how the Utah Beach museum blends  the indoor environment with the one through the windows.  It adds dimension to the place.

A Cross Stitched Band

I've started a cross stitched band.  Since it's a bit larger, it'll take a little more time to do.

Peeking Domes

The outlines of domes are appearing in this part.  The stitching is pretty easy; there are large blocks of color.
