New Purse

Andreas found this purse for me and gave it for Christmas.  In places like this, he prefers me to wear cross body or backpack ones, so this is kind of a combination of the two.  I think the distressed leather looks nice, too.

More Than Half Across

Looks like I am going to get this band done soon.  I like when things start to come together.

Ten Of Thirty-One

Of my 31 starts in 2015, I completed 10.  Not a really good amount.  On the other hand, I did finally complete ALL of the 2011 list and am currently working on whittling down 2012.  I also, overall, completed 47 projects.  From that viewpoint, I was pretty successful, especially with two of them being Chatelaine mandalas.  Time to start a new set of starts and to step up my stitching game, now that I'm moved into the house I'll be living in for the next year and a half - as soon as I get reunited with my stash.

Got Game?

 Andreas' parents gave us games for Christmas.  They gave us the latest Dominion expansion and a new Risk Legacy.  Hopefully we'll find a group to play the Legacy with soon, and someday our HHE will get here.  So they tell me.

Quartered

This blackwork takes a lot of time!  It doesn't help that I've been distracted by work and other things, too.  I do have about a quarter of it done, though, and I think the blackwork looks nice.  My only criticism is the use of so very many reds.

Foured

Working on with number four done now.  Almost a third of the way done with the project.

Looking Like A Window

The central motif is looking like a church window frame so far...
