Bits of Grain

I swear this skirt will end. In the meantime, I am going slowly across. At least some wheat kernels are beginning to sprout.

 

Dragonfly Sashikoed

Sashiko, at least, seems to go fast. All the dragonflies are done and ready to be made into a pillow or a tote bag. I haven't decided which.

 

Cavender's Haul

One of our Cavender's trips. Some of the earrings are not for me.

 

Fried Pickles

Fried pickles and biscuits. Because fried pickles is one of the best foods out there.

 

Happy Puppies

Mainly Carol in this set, surprisingly. And a happy Carol at that. So very unusual.

 

Butterflied

Yet another butterfly done. I seem to have a thing for butterflies. This one's now done and ready to be framed, though.

 

Armadillo Shell

Adding to the armadillo. Did you know the Polish name for armadillo is 'panczerka'? It means little tank. I think it's apt and cute.

 

Adding Hearts

Almost done with the flag and started some hearts. Just need the finial and some more hearts - then time for the background.

 

Red Squirrel

This is the squirrel that taunts Grayson on a regular basis. And one of the large trees in my back yard.

 

Giant Pizza and Fried Pickles

Lunch and dinner photos. All four of us could not finish this huge pizza. It tasted good, though. And fried pickles for dinner. Along with other stuff. But fried pickles.

 

A Picture of Each

A photo each of all three puppies. I miss them. They're in Poland. I'm stuck in Virginia for six more weeks.

 

Make Stuff May 2025 #18: Tapestry by Ink Circles

I am so very far behind on everything lately. Time to get things like this done. I've been able to get a bit more stitching done lately, at least. Unfortunately, not this piece.

 

Make Stuff May 2025 #17: Zingouigoui Delight by Riolis

Another intricate biscornu started. I need to finish one.

 

Stock and Barrel, Knoxville

Good food and decent, different, drinks. Even splitting a burger, there was too much for Andreas and I to eat. His parents split their meal, too. We all had to eat the fried pickles.

 

No Wonder Carol Thinks She's the Middle Child

More puppy photos, and definitely more boys than little girl. Then again, Carol tends to hide a bit, too, and the boys are more front and center and waiting for photo ops.
