Views Outside

More of the old city, the Catholic side this time, and outdoors.  You can see the fortress on the hill.  The paint spatter on the pavement marks where a mortar hit.  There are many of these in Sarajevo; all like this resulted in deaths.  It was also an easy target, as all of Sarajevo is in a valley.

Tubular Necklace

Going through another forthemakers box, I made this necklace.  Not particularly pleased with it, but it's done, which means one more box out of the house.

Chapter Meeting Stitchalong

I have started Caron Collection's freebie Winter Snowflakes.  It's a stitchalong for our chapter meeting.  Yes, I know my colors aren't particularly wintry.  It's what happens when you stitch from stash.

All Jeweled Up

I finished something!  Lately, it's been taking me longer between finishes, and I've been getting anxious.  This is now made into a fridgie magnet and will be sent to my mother in the next couple of days.

Muslim Old Town

The Muslim side of old town Sarajevo has a lot of bazaar stuff and little shops.  There are many brass smiths, too.  The second photo of this series is from inside the coffee shop we stopped to get warm in.  Also, by the fountain, there are huge numbers of pigeons.

On To The Second

I've started to work on the second panel now, even though the first is not quite done.

Gift From Mom

Mom gave me these necklaces.  Thank you Mom!
