Owl Be Hanging Out

I bought this pair of earrings at the same place I bought the mandala ones.  They are just plain cute.

Third Cornered

Three corners completed!  I must be making some progress.  I'm still not sure I will finish in time, though.

Getting Flaky

I am stuck in the middle of this piece.  It's coming along pretty well, but there's a lot of working around where the beaded snowflakes will be.

Name Of The Wind Print

Andreas likes Peter Rothfuss' Kingkiller series better than I do.  He bought this print because he loves the books.  MolDeco framed it for him.  It looks even better in person.

Sanding Out

I'm working on the big area around the central square now.  It's going pretty quickly.

Calling It Quits

I was bemoaning the awfulness of this pattern -- more partial stitches than whole ones, every single color a blended one.  Andreas asked why I was still working on it then.  I answered that it was for him and that I thought it wasn't turning out very well, either.  He agreed with the latter and said he'd been meaning to say that for a while but felt bad about it.  So it's going in the bin. All done with this Dracolair Design.  Won't be buying any more like this, either.

Lightweight Earrings

These huge wooden mandala earrings are featherweight on the ear.  They look good too!  We got them at the opening of the Soroca fortress from a Ukrainian vendor.
