So. Very. Close.

I am so close I can taste it to being done with this sampler.

Begging Birdie

Truly, we only stopped for a bite to eat after leaving Glasgow fairly early in the morning.  We were driving all the way down to Warwick.  We brought our food in to the car, and someone followed us.  It was this bird, and he was watching us eat.  And watching and watching.  Andreas eventually threw out a bread crust and the bird hopped on it immediately.  Talk about behavioral adaptation to a urban environment!

A New Warp

I love the colors of this warp.  I really need to fix the one harness on my loom so I can go ahead and start weaving.

Treetops

I have the treetops done.  Because they were queen stitches in the instructions, and I HATE queen stitches - not just doing them, but the look of them - I substituted rhodes stitches.  I like the look.  I will finish this soon, yay!

My Glengoyne Photo

I took this photo just after we arrived at Glengoyne in December.  Our visit there was wonderful, and we'll definitely go back.  I would also like to thank Glengoyne.  Once we got home, one of our master class glasses broke.  Andreas asked if he could buy a new one.  Glengoyne is sending him a replacement for free.  How nice of them!

Turkish Trivet

One of my colleagues went to Turkey for a wedding and brought back this trivet for me.  It's pretty!  Thank you, Oliver!  Took so long to post this because Andreas accidentally left this in his office for a couple of months.

  

Februaried

Yay, February is all done before the end of the month!
