Dancing Flowers

Dancing flowers to give away at some point.

 

Appleton's Wool

I am in the Certificate and Diploma program by the Royal School of Needlework now. The first project is design and stitch your own crewel. We have to pick three color families to work with. Mine are the blue, the yellow next to it, and the green. 

 

The Rest of the Haul



This is the rest of the pottery we bought in Boleslawiec last October. Some new patterns, some old.

 










Berlin Astronomical Clock

In Berlin, the Cold War was fought architecturally, too. This is one example - a communist astronomical clock. It sits in the main square of the former East Berlin. Kind of a neat design and one I've not seen before.

25 for 2025 #5: Key of Wisdom by Andriana

I saw this at a local cross stitch shop in Poland and bought it online here. Haven't seen it elsewhere.

 

25 for 2025 #2: Fresh Breeze by Riolis

This is going to be another dandelion piece. I like dandelions!
