May Day Exchange


An exchange from Jacque!  She made this beautiful sachet for me and gave me three silk skeins.  I sent her the pillow I posted a few weeks back and some silks, different kinds, too.  Whatever we sent had to have a ribbon, so we both succeeded.  The sachet is going in my clothing drawer.  Thank you Jacque!

Still Skirting

I've started some of the bottom ribbon, but I'm still working on the skirt.  That means more brown, surprise.

Still More Pattern

I am now down to the wire on this.  I have three months to finish all the rest of the pattern, so I'll be working on it daily.  At least I'm about halfway done.  Some people are even farther behind.

Tentacles Down

This week, I finished all the stitching on the tentacles of the third jellyfish.  I have one more step for this jellyfish, which should go quickly, and then I get to start a new one!

Half the Alphabet

Half the alphabet's done now, so it's time for another part.

Another Child's Heart

I've started a new heart for Hilfe fuer Kranke Kinder.  This one's by David.  He's nine and lives in Germany.  It's got a lot of blank space, so it should go very quickly!

Peaches for Me

I added peach tones this week, working on the wall.  No shutters, but I did add to the lower walkway too.
