Little Bits

Little bits at the extreme got extended.  They are a framework for more to come.

Cracker from New York

I received a Christmas cracker from upstate New York last week.  Isn't it pretty?

Vodka!

No, I've not turned into an alcoholic.  These bottles are about 300 ml each and contain Zubrowka, a Polish vodka banned in the United States that tastes great.  I found it at the winter bazaar.  The Polish embassy booth was selling it.  For some reason, it's not sold regularly in Moldova, either.

Third Row Done

All done with the third row and caught up with the release of parts now.  It feels good to be on time with something!

Working Toward the Goal

The deadline to do one of each week's motifs is the end of the year.  So far, I've got three of seven weeks, plus working on the fourth.  I -think- I can get it done.  Thee rest of the motifs can get stitched through the year otherwise.  Right now, the goal is just to get one from each week done to get the following week's motifs.

A Couple Done

Two of the stripes are done!  If I push it, I could have this done by the end of the year.

Plated

I think this will look good with all the Uruguayo wood serving stuff we picked up in Montevideo.  There was a booth of local artisans at the winter bazaar, and I liked this.
