Retiring For A Bit

After I have been complaining about the ears for so long, I decided to put this away for a bit.  I am hoping that a break will mean I will be happier to get these last two big gargoyles done when I pick it up again.

Colour Completments

I also bought from the Colour Complements sale.  Going to use these soon, I think.

Orna Willis Sale

Orna Willis had a sale.  I bought thread.

Filling In Sections

I am almost done filling in the third wing area and the top of the big blue ball.  I am also at the point where I am switching between pages top to bottom, which means I'm halfway done!

More Bits Of Red

Andreas was complaining that there's too much chartreuse in this.  He calmed down a bit after I stitched some more red bits, which put the green a bit in the background.  I'm getting pretty far quickly, which I am happy about.

Stitching Houses

Martina Weber has died and there will be no more Chatelaine mandalas.  Luckily, there are a lot to do.  I am working on this one and have been for a while.  I now have the second house worked all of one part of the roof.  Plus, I am beginning to do the specialty stitches on the houses because I'm done with all the back stitching on part four.  Picking up the pace a bit, I hope, as I have lots of time off at the moment.

Gifted By Restaurant

We were given this calendar when we went out to eat at a Chinese buffet in Vienna with friends.  Time to put it up.
