Rocking Along

Part of the rock is one now.  Moving right along with this.

Travel Light

Andreas, with reason, thinks the lighting in temporary housing such as hotels and rental apartments, isn't very good.  To help counteract that, we brought this battery operated light with us to Frankfurt.  I've used it a few times, and have three more weeks to go to use it more.

Sitting Proud

I have now completed every stitch of the top half of the dragon.  Next time, I will start back stitching everything.  The directions for the back stitching aren't very good, so I will have to wing it some.  I am so pleased with how this looks, though!

Dense Petals

Lots of petals are overlapping in this section, so there are many color changes plus green leaf peeking through.

Finally Showing The Kit

I've already shown the actual embroidery on this a few times, but hadn't gotten around to showing the kit itself.  I like the little cloth bag; it can even be stitched otherwise.

Gifted

I gave a couple of large bags of yarn and other things to the deputy chief of mission's maid and she was so happy for it she made me these knitted slippers and a bead necklace.  They're lovely!

Belly Full

The peacock now has a full middle.  Things are moving along.
