Some Windows, Some Bricks

I have some windows outlined as the building continues to take shape.  

Pretty Glasses

 The Purcari label glasses are very pretty.  We have a set of six now....

Picking At Progress

I am concentrating on the left side and hope to make it look like I'm progressing.  It looks rather the same, but there are a lot of small filled in areas now.

On The Border

I can't stop smiling about this piece because I'm officially working on the borders!  Yay!  The last building of the last side is stitched and now I just have borders to do.

Nesting

Our outdoor terrace table was not only attacked by hornets, it had birds in the rafters too!

In The Background

This time it's all about the background.  A darning pattern repeated over and over again gets boring very quickly.

A Gargyle Start

Andreas and I saw a chart by Joan Elliott called Gargoyles.  We both liked it; I bought it and the threads and then fished a piece of fabric out of my stash.  It's now begun.
