Brno's Castle


We walked up the hillside to Spilberk Castle on a cold winter day in Brno. The castle has a great view of the surrounds, of course, and has a modern art museum inside - something that seems common in castles in central Europe. There was also a part about the history of the castle. And there were puppies and Christmas decorations.

Butterflied

Yet another butterfly done. I seem to have a thing for butterflies. This one's now done and ready to be framed, though.

 

Armadillo Shell

Adding to the armadillo. Did you know the Polish name for armadillo is 'panczerka'? It means little tank. I think it's apt and cute.

 

Adding Hearts

Almost done with the flag and started some hearts. Just need the finial and some more hearts - then time for the background.

 

Making Argyle

Working on getting the middle filled in for a bit. Then on to the right side windows for specialty stitches. Going to get this part done soon.

 

Red Squirrel

This is the squirrel that taunts Grayson on a regular basis. And one of the large trees in my back yard.

 

Giant Pizza and Fried Pickles

Lunch and dinner photos. All four of us could not finish this huge pizza. It tasted good, though. And fried pickles for dinner. Along with other stuff. But fried pickles.
