Zentangled Part Two

The second part of Zentangle is done. I have part three, but am waiting to finish part four of the spring mystery before starting it. The spring mystery's on a much tighter schedule. I still like the colors on this, and I'm hoping to find a home for it somewhere when it's done.

Not Another Flower

This picture is way too pink and yellow, but you can see I made significant progress on my latest band. All the little diamonds are done and quite a bit of the vine they're in.

Back to Temari

I know I haven't done any of these since Christmas, but I did do this one! It's a gift, and should be getting to its recipients today. I hope they like it. Found the pattern on TemariKai. They have lots of patterns there and even if you don't do temari, just looking is fascinating.

Squared Off

Here's the little thing (it's -really- tiny) all squared off now. The red is dominant again, but I have a lot of green to do next. At least it no longer looks like measles. If I don't finish this before I get to Kosovo, it'll be finished within a week or two of getting there. Two more weeks and a couple of days before I leave. The travel is brutal - I have two layovers, each five hours or so, in Paris and Vienna. Too long to sit at the gate and too short to go into town and explore. I'll probably go into the first class lounges (the one in CDG is nice) and sleep or try to get some stuff done.

Third Mystery Part Done

I finished the third part of Tam's mystery on my German group on Sunday. Lots and lots of backstitching, but it's looking okay. I'm glad I picked the colors I did; they seem to go well with the design. It reminds me of the country feel of a lot of designs from the eighties and early nineties. Got the fourth part on Monday and am busily stitching on it.

Building Up

It's one of those weeks where you have to look closely to see progress, but I promise you it's there. Another building was started, and dark was added to one of the others.

Lots of Outlines

When I did the first part of this project, I didn't think there'd be all that much blackwork. I was wrong. It seems that each of the outer areas will be mainly blackwork, and that's what I did this week - lots of the same leaf pattern.
