Walking by the Elbe in Dresden

Yes, it was a pretty bleak (and chilly!) day, but the tour took us down the Elbe river. Evidently the bridge collapsed during a storm a couple of weeks previously. I don't know what the pretty building is, but it's not on the church/palace side of the river.

Making a Flag

Restarted this project with lines from Our Country Tis of Thee. This one is probably the quickest of the four to stitch. Series is from Gay All Rogers.

 

Added a Garden to the Rotation

With the Victorian Garden done, I've started back up on Alhambra Garden. It uses a -lot- more DMC than other Chatelaines because it's one of the earliest.

 

Building Fences

With all the cross stitch done, it's time to do a god awful amount of back stitch. Working on getting all the fences done.

 

So Very Close

Almost all of the cross stitching done on this, but a whole lot of back stitch to do.

I gave this particular kit away, as I didn't want it. Someone else will enjoy making it.

 

Szczecin Waterfront

Not really a cold day and not a truly rainy day either when we walked the waterfront. But the sky lies.
