Still Seeing Red

I've still got the red splotch problem on the right, so my counts don't always add up, but it's coming along.  I'm getting rather tired of red back and forth and back and forth, though.

Filling In The Tree

I got a bit of tree done on this now, and the top of  the castle is done.  I'm beginning to feel real progress as I close in on the halfway mark.

Final Crazy Start - Beach Construction

Three shovels done on this - more than nothing.  It's the same size as the acorn sampler I did for my crazy January challenge last year.

Bringing Down the Houses

Sometimes it feels odd to be working downward toward the roofs.

TAST Week 5 - Herringbone Stitch

I decided to try a temari design on a flat surface for this stitch.  The stitch used most often in temari is herringbone.  I think it came out all right, but it looks a lot different than it does on a ball.

Christmas Goodness

My brother sent us Texas foods!  Now to finally get some warm weather to use the rub.... the chili powder gets used sooner.  Thanks Kirby!

Crazy Start #30 - Dragonfly Pair

Another bit of needlepoint for the challenge.  This one's not too big, and has dragonflies.  What could be better?
