Starting Back

Picked up one of my crazy January starts to finish.  This one's Cappuccino Milk Chocolate Truffle.

Florida Stash

I only managed to go to one stitch shop in Florida.  The needlepoint shop I wanted to go to in Miami (on my birthday, yet) was closed for two weeks without anything on their website - just a sign on the door.  I'd ordered online from them before, but never will again.  Their loss.  These are what I found at Cross Stitch Cupboard in Fort Lauderdale.

Penultimate Round

After a bunch of work on the plane, I'm now on the penultimate round of this piece.  So very little to go!  I might have finished it if I hadn't had to rip out the first side four times...

Four Of Five

I keep edging closer to being done!  And a friend of mine has claimed this, when it's done, as hers.  So now to finish.  Four petals done with pink, one more to go.  Then the inside, some beads, and the ladybug and it's complete!

Pen For Red

It's regulated that I use certain colors of ink for certain tasks at work.  I know, that's weird, but it is the US government... so, to help with one of those colors, Andreas got me this pen.  It will be stocked with red ink.  And no, I don't work with budgets.

Village Start

I bought this pattern and the fabric while I was in Virginia earlier this year.  Started it after buying the thread in Florida.  Now to get more done!  It's The Village Square from Ink Circles.

Nails Done

I got my nails done at the Fort Lauderdale Hilton Resort while we were there a couple of weeks ago.  Evidently, my nails were fun to do because very few people who go there are the least bit adventurous.  I had brought my own nail polish, and it lasted right around a week.  My pedicure in the same colors is lasting a lot longer, of course!
