A New Start

What's the use of tossing the rotation if you can't start something completely new?  This small ornament is what I started.  It's called Christmas Jewels from Mill Hill, and I've made a pretty good start.

Snow Start

Not much of this done yet, but maybe I can get it finished by Christmas.  It'll at least be a lot closer to done by then.

TAST 11 To 13

Weeks eleven through thirteen done on my sampler.  I seem to be catching up, somewhat!

Finally, Part Nine Done!

Yes, I finished the next to last part!  It's the largest project I've been working on all year.

Goldwork Round Robin

I picked this block of Ruby's because of the scientific measurement printing on one of the fabrics, then didn't do a lab job on it.  Instead, the piece told me to put paisleys.  The circles in the paisleys are from a piece of fabric I picked up in Uruguay - it's completely made up of silk-cored gold-wrapped thread.  The rest are various bits and pieces of gold stuff I had lying around.

Pink On Green

 A fairly easy C8 temari done.  I think the colors came out really nice.

Two Finished Ornaments

 I finished these two ornaments for the Manzi-Fortisches before they left.  I think they came out pretty well!
