Christmas Flowers

 Andreas got me a very pretty floral centerpiece just before Christmas.  It was delivered, so he wasn't able to see the actual one I got until he got home.  It's beautiful, but especially the roses and the mums were rather old in it.  I still love it, though, and we've learned the lesson to pick up in person!

Going Green

The green stripes are filling up fast.  Definitely over halfway done!

An Accidental Start

I got this in the mail a couple of weeks ago, and it was sitting on the endtable when I sat down, so... it's started.  Its the first in the XOctagon series from Fireside Stitchery.

Bowlful

The bowl of temari before they were all given out.

Backgrounding in Blue

All that's left is a lot of scotch stitches....

Going Down

Time to go downward on both part six (top) and part five (bottom).  It means I've got some progress.

Party Gifts

These gifts were given us at the party we threw last Saturday week.  The chocolates and brandy are both local specialties!
