Vogafjos restaurant in Mývatn, northeastern Iceland. We ate all of it except the skyr (Rob had a taste, and I had about half of mine), then caused inadvertent offense when we asked to see the dessert menu: The skyr was the dessert. Another menu item involved skyr served with a fruit compote, so I asked for a little of that to go with the rest of mine. (I like skyr — and this was very good — but, for my taste, that's a lot of skyr to eat plain.)
My first "real" quilt, made during a fantastic 9-week beginner's class at my LQS. I'm lost selecting fabrics, but I did my very best with workmanship. My fabric plan can be seen in the rail fences: one water-drop batik in each blue, green, and yellow; one freckle in blue, green, and yellow; and one color+white for each. It's a total mess color-wise, but it is durably constructed and *most* of the points are where they're supposed to be. I learned a LOT in this class.
Made one row for each week very simple patterns on perforated paper

The rather morbid sentiment of this sampler was meant as ‘momento mori’, a reminder that we are all mortal.

Week 1 of my sampler, from Sharon's class at Joggles. Such a lot of fun, exploring a stitch, dreaming up variations of it, and trying different effects. Who would think the purple patch at top right is exactly the same stitch as the green patch below it!
I am leaving blank areas so I can add more variations as I htink of them in the future.
2 each: Peanut Butter Cup, Cookies and Cream, Black Forest, Rocky Road, Caramel Cocoa-Nut, Red Velvet
I'm now ready to start putting together the whole quilt top from my Nubees swap.
block inspiration from "Block Party..." one of my awesome Christmas presents.
Bloco 2 do Sampler.
O tecido liso que parece bege, na verdade é verde, ou melhor, um bege meio esverdeado. Não havia uma luz legal e nem eu sou sou boa fotógrafa, por isso ficou assim.
Mini space sampler - four tiles choosen from the 16 tiles original.
This was stitched for a dear friend of mine who studies astrophysics, and these four tiles were particularly meaningful to our friendship.
The larger sampler was designed by Geri Ambrose of The Mathyspere (bought on Etsy).
Stitched on 25 count black Lugana using 3 strands of DMC floss.
I changed the colour scheme of the Martian sky from blue to yellow to give it a stormy look.
