Major Finish - Earth Dragon

It only took me seven years to complete, but it's done.  I love how it turned out. Unfortunately, it's now out of print and the company has gone out of business. This will go to Moldova when we visit to get framed.

It's Done Do'ed

This saying is for someone who requested it. I need to put it together into a flat fold to give to her.

Sunday Drive in Kosovo

On our way back from Gracanica, we didn't take the highway.  Ended up behind this... Kosovo is definitely still rural.

More Rooftops

More roof definition going on here, and a lot of detail coming out.

Vining Along

There's more blackwork than cross stitch on this piece, so I'm making my way around the square with a bunch of vine.

Parental Birthday Gifts

Andreas' parents gave me these lovely gifts for my birthday!  I am in awe of the tiny temari.  They are so well done, too.  The gift wrap cloth I am going to have to practice with, as I truly like the idea but suck at folding correctly.  Practice!

New Smoker

On a visit to Camp Bondsteel, Andreas saw a smoker at the PX. It wasn't that expensive, and he thought it'd be great to have. So, before buying it there, he checked out the price on amazon, and found it quite a bit less expensive.  It came through the mail.  And now it's set up and we use it on a regular basis.  The last photo is what we smoked first.  It was tasty.
