La Sagrada Familia The Aqvarium

Here some pictures from the long weekend in Barcelona.

The Fun Faire and the Magic Fountain

Fall needle roll exchange in the HoE-group for Laurence in France. I really liked to stitch this exchange.

Here is the colourexchange from Carol in the xscircle group. A pretty Halloween boo magnet with beading.

Update

In the stitching world I have done some finishings. xscircles colour exchange is done and off to the postoffice today. Septembers theme was halloween. Cant tell more since it hasn´t arrived at its recipient yet (-:. I´ve also started on a RR evenweave over two. Mailed out my RR that is a sampler of an Indian summer with loads of animals found in India. Also received a lovely Bent Creek design which I loved to stitch on. (Partly because of the colour brown (-:). When I was in Barcelona with 15 others from an organization I am a member of (IOGT) in the middle of September I had a great time. To say a simple thank you I made herbal bags for them. The pattern I found in one of the many magazines I´ve got (could never have to many of them! since they are a fountain of inspiration).

Fall needle roll arrived

Here is a fall needle roll in the HoE group. This is from Leigh very beautifully stitched and with nice silkbands. Lovely colours; I love brown, golden brown and orange, green. I liked the pattern alot. Thank you Leigh for a great exchange!

Yohoo, WIP finally done. Last week I finished one WIP a calendar by "Marks och Kattens". It is now hanging at my office at work. Guess one should have hopped on the next WIP instead of starting a new one but.....just couldn´t keep my fingers from a pristine kit (-:.

Heres a picture of the finished piece:

Rain and rain.....haven´t been to my allottement since monday but since there isn´t loads to do at work I´ll finish earlier tomorrow. Really need to go there and do some therapeutic weeding. A collegue at work passed away this week in an accident so need to put my mind on something else. Everytime I see his work I feel like crying.

Since it is raining I felt like doing some hoovering and also got some stitching done on my calender WIP since years back but soooon dooone(-: Just some backstitching and then some easy finishing touches. Going to put it up at my boring office at work. Really needs some cross-stitching touches there(-:.

Okidoki, backstitching here I come...(-:
