One Hill Done

I've got one hill done!  Things are moving along n the right direction.  

So Close

I am so very close to having the last building on the top half of the left side done.  Only two more rows!  I've also noticed that I missed some backstitching on the top and right, so I'm going to have to do more at some point soon.

Memorial Markers

 Markers of the services at the windswept beach.

All Boxed Up

After finishing this last summer, I finally took this Iris piece designed by Laura J. Perin to the framer last month.  We decided to make it into a box.  MolDeco did a great job and were impressed enough with my stitching to ask for the piece for an exhibition starting tomorrow.  It's there, and I'm the only foreigner in it.  Go, me!  Needlepoint, outside of continental stitch, is very rare around here.


Making A Square

The bottom half of  the inner square is taking shape even as the lampposts look almost finished.  It feels like progress.

Back Outdoors

Old bunker doors lead back outside.  The landscape is stark and bleak, even on a sunny (if chilly) summer day.

Block For Donna

 This was my last block to work on in the country garden round robin.  I didn't have much to fill in because of all the previous work and busy prints, but I managed to add some things.  Below you can see the additions.
