Peacock Mandala - Stitch Maynia #4

The first thing I decided when beginning this design by Northern Expressions Needlework was to ditch the outer border. I thought it detracted from the design and it was these yellow tiny jessicas. Not worth it!

Calling This One A Disaster

The pattern for this was a disaster, with none of the four sides being symmetric. I got tired of trying to keep it consistent and am calling it quits. It wasn't fun at all to stitch.

Random Consular Food

Went to this place that I can't quite remember on one of my consular trips around the country. The rounds of bread are the local cornmeal bread.

Naples Food Tour - Limoncello Factory

The store had a lot of stuff, and it's right near the entrance to the catacombs. It was also the last stop of the tour. They took us through the whole process of making limoncello.

Celtic Uncrossed

I decided to put a different charm in the middle than the cross. Other than that, it's done.

Bunnies Done

Bunnies from cozyblue are done and are to be finished in a hoop and given to someone else.

Carol Growing

Carol almost not fitting on the shark bed but still too small to have her brown spots visible.
