Milling Along

These are the flour mills at the front of Mullixhiu in Tirana. They run multiple times a day.

I picked up this issue of Needlepoint Now because it has an ornament I want to make in it. Maybe I'll subscribe since I'm not a member of EGA or ANG anymore.

Filling In The Lines

Making the background of the center now so I can start filling everything else in soon.

Fifth Framed

The fifth house is framed and beginning to get filled in as the fourth house is getting back stitched. Making some progress.

Journey To Albania

We went to Tirana one day over the summer solely to go to a restaurant our manager wanted to go to. It's called Mullixhiu, and it's a slow food restaurant. Almost everything there is from a farm on the way to Shkoder. The food was very good. The bread was so fresh that the flour had been ground that day in the flour mills they have in the front. The name of the restaurant means mill in Albanian. We asked the wait staff to recommend items to us, and they did not disappoint. We made the trip back to Pristina very stuffed indeed.

Fireflies!

Bought this during a walk through of Hobby Lobby. Will definitely be started, at latest, during stitch maynia.

Another Tree

One more tree just about done. This has been put away until it arrives in Kosovo in our air shipment.
