Another Tabla del Campo

A few weeks ago, we had a tabla del campo in the local mall.  Here's how it arrived.  It's the Uruguayan equivalent of antipasto.

Backyard Bird

 It seems a pair of hummingbirds has built a nest in one of our trees.  Andreas caught one of them fluttering about the back yard last week.





Beading for Peggy

 This was the last block I was working on for the beaded round robin.  As you can see, there's not much room left, either. 
So here is what I did: I made a bead flower and a fan out of beads and jewelry findings.  I also did one seam because that was all that was left.  She's got it now and likes it.  That's all I can ask.

Asian Block Home!

This top picture is how I sent the block out.  I asked for a more Arabian theme instead of the usual oriental.  They did well!  Thank you so much to Peggy, Rita, Candji, and Darlene!  You can see their work below, from a flying carpet to a magic lamp.

Stuck in the Middle

Still working on the middle building here, but there's definitely less of it left to do.

Waving Away

I am now off the jellyfish for the moment and working on the background.  It feels good to be doing something new with this!
