More Stained Glass

 
These are all windows on the sides of St. Etienne.  They look much older than they are.









Third In A Week Done

This is the third of the three finishes I made last week.  It's going to be made into an ornament.  I think it'll look good.

Down The Nave

 THese photos show the light down the main aisle of the church.  Plus some buttresses and a clock!

The Second Tier

I am about half way across the second tier of stuff, with the whole first tier done.  This is coming along nicely, I think.  I've got one stitchalong done; it's time to get the second done.

I Don't Trust The Cherubim

This is the choir stall of the abbey St. Etienne in Caen.  The cherubs look downright evil. some of  them!  I don't think I'd trust myself sitting by them for a long, boring mass.

Blackwork's Done!

I finished three things last week, go me!  This was one of them.  I have no idea what I am going to do with it now, but it's off my crazy January list and completed.  I really should have used a different thread color.  Lots of it looks faded out.

In The Sanctuary

The city of Caen never decommissioned the church that sits in the abbey, so it's still a sanctuary.  The place has been rebuilt after World War II and looks good.  Lots of pretty stained class and much light for the architecture.
