Crazy January Start #18: Mug Shot

This piece is a kit.  I hated the white aida, so I ended up using my own linen.  It's a stack of several coffee cups with different patterns, so it won't be boring.

Covered Market In Budapest

This is the view from the second story o the covered market in Budapest.  It's huge.  It's also a great place to get lost, though some booths are geared toward tourists, with commensurate prices.

Crazy January Start #18: Mug Shot

I just had to change out the white aida for something else and only got a few stitches in.  I have been so very busy and very tired lately that my stitching's suffered.

Tree Sampler Framed

I have had this sampler done for at least three years, and, knowing we're going to move, we're taking a lot of things to MolDeco to get framed.  This was one of them.  I think they did an awesome job!  The framing makes this blah sampler stunning.

Backgrounding

Just about all the work this time was done to the right of the peacock, working on the background.  At least some of it is getting done.

Hungary's Hellish Kitchen

We stopped at a market booth for lunch one day, and it was awful!  The service was slow and the food was cold and blech.  The name of the place, we found out later, was Hungary's Hell's Kitchen.  Evidently this was their Christmas booth.  It SO made me not want to go to their restaurant!

Royal Times

The people of Cluj publish a newspaper on National Day showing the return of the royals to Bucharest on the first National Day in 1918.  Good way to remember history!
