Proud Dragon

I feel proud of all the stitching I got done on this while it was on its two weeks of being the daily stitch.  I have a much prouder dragon now and am very close to having the first two pages complete.

New Game

Andreas decided it was time for a new game, and he decided to indulge my chemistry nerd.  I think we're taking this with us on safari next week.

Up To Eight

I have eight leaves done.  Slowly I progress.  Starting tomorrow, this will be my daily piece for a while, so it should show a lot more progress next photo.

Threads!

More new thread bought while in the States!

Blue Nails

I went to the same nail place twice while I was in training.  It's Ivy Nail and Spa in Arlington.  They did a really good job.  This is a photo taken the day I got the manicure a week ago Saturday.  Even doing my daily stuff, the (non-gel) polish stayed on just above a week before beginning to chip.  It's a really good deal, too.

Treed

I believe I now have the tree stitched completely.  There's some grassy stuff below it, but I feel I am getting close to the bottom of the picture.

Three And A Half

Sometimes I wish this sampler wasn't quite so wide.  It gets boring doing the same pattern so many times.  Looks good, though.
