Just About

Just about done with the second pumpkin.  

At The Romer

This square was originally the heart of Frankfurt.  It's about a block from the Main.  It's also practically new, having been rebuilt after the second world war.  The day I took this set of photos there was a large number of Chinese tourists, all with cameras.  I ended up taking these because I was knocked over at the entrance to the Frankfurt Historical Museum by a large number of middle school aged children bowling me over.  Not fun.






Lots Of Turquoise

I am almost done with the turquoise cross sttiches.  The piece is almost the size it's destined to be, too.

New Cuppa

Lots of handmade pottery in Krakow.  I broke down and bought this beautiful cup while I was there.

L'ed

The only thing left on the L is the beading.  Time to move on to the O, which is the most work of all.

Over Halfway

I've gotten most of the outlining done and I'm not really sure I like the piece at all.  It may be because I changed the color of the fabric.

Richelieu Embroidery

I found this kit in a small shop in Krakow.  This is going to be one of my January starts.  I'm excited about it.
