Stemmed

The giant stem in the middle is done. I'm over halfway complete with this project. Lots of little flowers yet to do.

On To Four

This old project is well on its way to stitching completion. Once I'm done with the fourth block, I need to add triangles to the bottom then lots of backstitching for outlines to put it together.

Flowers On The Windowsill

Our apartment in Frankfurt last spring had a ledge. So when Andreas bought me these flowers, that's where I put them.

Placemats

This is Kosovar handwoven cloth. Andreas bought it for me when I left him to go to the embassy bazaar on his own. He did good.

Cabana Beached

I managed to finish this into something to hang. It's about to be on its way to a friend in Moldova. Turned out nice and cheery.

French Flowers

Pretty flowers blooming last spring in the Strasbourg Consulate General's yard.

Raclette in Gjilan

Who knew there was a raclette restaurant in Gjilan? We didn't, but the DCM found it and invited a bunch of us out to lunch. It was very, very good. Name of the place is Pep's Taverna.
