Boxing Up

I'm working down the side with the boxes.  Lots of little boxes to do!

New Threads

I decided to try some new threads, so I bought these!  They're cotton and from a UK company called Jodryi designs.  I have yet to use them, but the colors sure are pretty! 

Won At Auction

We bid on this painting during the Hospice Angelus Ball's silent auction and won!  It's an original painting depicting part of Baku, Azerbaijan.  We don't have it hanging up yet, but will soon.  All proceeds went to the hospice's end of life care program.

A Golden Heart

I've started Ritva's golden heart for the fool's gold round robin.  Doesn't look like much yet....

Bits Of Branch

Well, I'm within about twenty rows of finishing the first couple of pages.  Things are progressing, and the branch is sweeping down.

Thank You Heather And Kathryn!

We took care of the cat a few weekends while the Rogerses were away in the States.  (Twister, the cat, likes watching people play board games.  It was a real hardship.  Not.)  As a thank you, they brought back this lovely pendant necklace for me and a box of gummi lifesavers for Andreas.  I know I got the better part of the deal, despite Andreas not really looking good in necklaces.  Thank you so much!  I've already worn it a few times.
