Weapons As Art

The armory is full of arms!  The arms, though, are arranged as art.  They're not just in rows or all piled up.  They've been made into sculpture.

On The Obverse...

Unlike with Medieval Town Mandala, I feel like I'm making almost no progress on this.  I know stitches are being put into fabric and not being ripped out.  I just don't see them adding up to much at the moment.

Catty Corner

Evidently Andreas had a hard time fitting both areas I was working on this week into the photo.  This was his solution.  I have one corner complete and another well on its way.  I feel so good about making progress on this!

Sultan Mehmet In Brasov

We found a Turkish restaurant in Brasov.  It was far from the tourist areas and on a residential street.  We thought we were lost.  It was there, though, and we went inside.  Sultan Mehmet isn't a large restaurant, and the locals who go there are of Turkish origin.  I don't know much about Turkish food, but it sure was good - well, except the lemonade.  They don't believe in sweetening it.  Anyway, we walked away stuffed and with a very positive experience.  It was worth going out of the way to find it.









Looks Like An Armory

It seems the powers that be that run Peles Castle took all the weapons lying around and put them in the same room....

Hill Top

I am making a hill now for the cute sheep to stand on.

Bits Of Stone

I've been working on the border squares and some of the gargoyle on the right.
