Halfway Point

Yay, I'm at the halfway point! I can get this done!

Naples Yarn

While walking to the boneyard from our apartment, I spotted a shop that said Merceria. I went inside and was treated very nicely, even with the language difficulties. Found these nice cotton yarns. They're mine now.

In From The Snow

It was hard to pull the Sharr in from the snow, but after a couple hours she did come inside. Then she went out again. Winter is her favorite time of year.

Culinary Backstreets Souvenirs

Early this month we were in Naples and took the Culinary Backstreets tour. It was interesting, and the franchisee for Italy was one of our guides. He wrote the book above. One of  the stops was the sign maker who makes all the produce signs for the street markets. He did my name.

Garden Sampler Done

I am pretty stingy with thread, but this kit didn't have enough. Even substituting four of my own colors, it was short. Not good. On the other hand, it's done and ready to turn into a cushion.

More Snow

Mattie enjoyed another day of snow and wallowed in it. We had over a foot.

Started Last Tree

Yay, the fourth tree is started! I'm progressing!
