Fancy Outline

I got band three done, which was four sided stitch.  Band four is a rather large cross stitch design which I am working on now.

Pinned Well

We also found this beautiful butterfly pinned to a white background at the art market in Odessa.  The iridescent colors don't show up well in this photo, but they're gorgeous.

Gridding Green

Got a lot of green done on the right side now.  It's beginning to look a bit more balanced.

Peacock Bracelet

Yay! A peacock bracelet!  We found it at an art market outside the cathedral in Odessa.  I guess I've become a collector of peacock accessories.

Ladybugs

Found this barrette in a shop in Odessa when we went last month.  I loved the ladybugs, so had to get it.

Ups And Downs

Nearly halfway across with the ups and downs of the pattern.

Stitching The Sidewalk Down

The sidewalk got some love this time.  Parts of it extend past the end of the page and onto the next.  I have maybe twenty columns to go on this page.
