Backstitching Along

All the big elements are in place; now it's time to backstitch around them.

 

One Big Bellflower

There are three big bellflowers in this piece. The first is just about done. Progress.

 

Stewed

This turned out a lot more uniform than I wanted. The squares have more variegation in person.

 

On to the Yellows

Order of stitching was not necessarily logical, as it was determined by the day's stitches taught by the tutors. That's why there are random leaves and trellises.

 

Arromanche

Still able to see the temporary port in the chilly, foggy October day.




 

Flags

In the churchyard at Ste. Maire Eglise.




 

Maps and Diorama

 

Diorama of Krakow and Kazimierz in the middle ages, along with maps showing the presence of Jews in Poland.
