A Nice Find

We found this piece at the art park.  I negotiated for it in Spanish!  Anyway, it's now time to get it framed at MolDeco.  

Petaling Along

More borders and one more petal started!

More From Our Yard

 We have so many flowers in our yard.  Here are some more that Andreas took photos of.  Some of them even have a pollinator or two...

Hole In The Middle

There's a hole in the middle of the stitching for the baseball.  I just haven't gotten to those colors yet.  It's coming along pretty quickly.

Nearing The Top

That dome is getting so close to being finished!  There are flowers on the left too, now.  They're coming along.

Thank You Fireside Stitchery!

A few weeks ago Matt from Fireside Stitchery emailed me to tell me I'd won a contest.  I didn't even know I'd entered!  Anyway, we emailed back and forth a little bit and it turned out I had entered by buying things from their weekend e-sales.  There have been some good bargains there and I picked some up.  My prize came in the mail a couple of weeks ago - all these bags of sequins.  Now I get to figure out how to use them.

Fiddly Bits

I have been so close to finishing off the top two pages of this design for so long, but keep getting hung up on little bits of color.  There are all these tiny pockets of places that have a couple or three stitches on the top pages then move down into the lower pages.  At least I'm getting a head start on the lower pages, right?
