One Set Done

One set of flowers done, one more  to do on this piece.

Sunflowers!

 Pictures of some of the sunflowers we saw in the Moldovan countryside.  Whole fields of them stood on both sides of the road.

Facing

At least now the peacock looks like it's facing the tree branch.  Things are coming along.

Idyllic Countryside

Pictures of Tipova by the Nistru.  Like most of the Moldovan countryside, it looks so tranquil and peaceful.  Hard to believe that the Nistru is a frozen conflict line.  It seems, at least for the last few months, that the relationship is getting better.

Backgrounding

I've been filling out the background this time.  It's coming along, and I feel like I'm making progress.  It could be that I'm stitching the last parts of rows, so I can tick them off the "to do" part.

A Little More

I put the first stitches in on the last side of the square!  The thread was leftover from the third side, so.... definite progress!

On The Nistru

 Photos of the Nistru (Dniester) River at Lalova at the end of June.  It's a very placid, slow moving river.
