Prince of Wales Museum

 
 This is the Prince of Wales museum in Mumbai.  It has art, mainly contemporary.  Unfortunately, I never got to go in.  The grounds are pretty, even the photobombing tree.

Hard To See

I think I am going to have to outline the letters on this, as they're barely visible on the fabric.  Gotta do Beaker, though!

Little Owl

This little kit was from Luca-S and finishing the stitching was the work of only an evening.

Taj Lunch

After my first Good Friday tour, I went to the Taj Palace for lunch and at at their ground level restaurant.  I was sooooo happy to be able to have a bland meal for once in Mumbai.  Even though it was not full of spice, it was fresh and tasty.


Old Car

 Strangely enough, Good Friday is a holiday in India.  That was the day I was walking on a tour and saw this old Indian car.  Pretty neat and well kept!

Off To A Meh Start

This is my first beginning of the Linen and Threads Mystery Sampler.  I started it as part of Stitch Maynia, but I think I am going to restart.  The fabric I ordered from Picture This Plus is darker and greener than I desired.  I found a better linen in my stash, and I am now waiting for some threads from Needle in a Haystack to come in so I can get the colors just right.

All Outlined

Because I am running out of the Ariana pearl thread I am using for the outlines, I have decided to leave this piece square.  That means, with the outlines of the three little boxes below, I am done with all the edges.  Yay!
