Bodied

Hooty's body is done; now it's time to do the special stitches and then do the beading.  There are lots of beads to put on this, but it's almost done.

By The University

Just past the airport is the university.  It's one of the better kept up areas, but it's still dingy.









Looking About

From the courtyard to the greensward below, the views are wonderful.  They even have a puppy cemetery for all the dogs posted at the castle.  Too bad there isn't more green in the castle.

Beeskep Done

I'm very happy to be back working on a crewel project!  This is fun to work on.  I did the beeskep this time, and I like it.

Air Force Base

The first few photos are of the wall of the air force base next to the airport, then comes the entrance to the airport.  I consider this area the entrance to the city proper.  From this point on, you're pretty much downtown.










Views By Scottish Military Museum

You can tell the proximity to the military museum by the statue.  I love the gate, and the wrought iron is pretty.

Another Week, Another Window

Another square done!  This was a simple waffle stitch, so I whipped right through it.  Next up is a padded waffle stitch.  Might take a bit longer.
