Delivery from Hand and Lock

I now have my own prick and pounce set and a new goldwork kit from Hand and Lock. They both came in these lovely tins.



 

Gifts from the Parents

Thank you to Andreas' parents for the great Christmas gifts! I'm using the stationery and will be turning the box into a project box. Andreas loves the tank key  chain. And the dice tower. And the pillowcases are so soft.







 

All Bound Up

My floral mandala is ready to gift. Even if it is a little bit lopsided.

 

West Berlin International Architect Area

In the 1950s, while Berlin was being rebuilt, the Americans thought it would be a great idea to showcase internationally acclaimed architects. So they commissioned them to build a bunch of apartment buildings in the same area. They're still there. And some of them are truly UGLY.

25 for 2025 #3: Oil Derrick by Eye Candy

Started another ornament in the 12 Days of Texas series. This one shouldn't take too long.

 

Starting a Wing

The green lines up top are the beginning of a dragon wing. The rest is coming along, at least. There's so very much to go on this.

 

Bits of Sparkle

Yay, little bits of wheat ears showing up. The end is not near, but in sight.
