Reflecting Scotland

I started this twice; the first time was with two strands of floss.  I decided this was too bulky, so restarted with one strand.  Now I have most of the first sword done!

Orange, No Peacock

This is a Mill Hill kit that I bought from Nordic Needle.  It will have a peacock and a saying when it's done.  Bought two, because it's perfect for one of my friends.

The Market

This market is one of the main ones in Mumbai.  It's called Crawford Market and has almost everything food in it, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian.  I love the way the pineapple sellers cut the pineapples.  According to my guide, this method makes the pineapples less stringy when eating. 

Prince of Wales Museum

 
 This is the Prince of Wales museum in Mumbai.  It has art, mainly contemporary.  Unfortunately, I never got to go in.  The grounds are pretty, even the photobombing tree.

Hard To See

I think I am going to have to outline the letters on this, as they're barely visible on the fabric.  Gotta do Beaker, though!

Little Owl

This little kit was from Luca-S and finishing the stitching was the work of only an evening.

Taj Lunch

After my first Good Friday tour, I went to the Taj Palace for lunch and at at their ground level restaurant.  I was sooooo happy to be able to have a bland meal for once in Mumbai.  Even though it was not full of spice, it was fresh and tasty.
