I've continued working on the house and I think it is looking better all the time.
I pulled out this redwork piece that I started last year with the stitch group and worked on it a bit more.
I found these two little flower blocks when I was looking for something else and I'm thinking about making them into something. I made them in a class at the Paducah Quilt show about twenty years ago, but I can't remember what the original project was. These two orphans didn't have any additional fabrics or instructions with them. Maybe I'll have something to show in the future with them.
One morning, on the advice of Eiko-ba, I walked to the Ozato Tamaishi Wall. It took about an hour and a half and I came across many interesting things along the way. First, there was a little roadside park.
I had to walk through this little tunnel (both going and coming back). It was a little scary, maybe dangerous, when a car drove through. I tried to get as close to the wall as I could.
On the other side was a nice lookout area.
This is what the tunnel looked like from the other side.
There was a second tunnel, but it had a sidewalk so it wasn't as scary.
I saw this on the side of the road and had to walk inside to investigate.
At last, the wall area!
The whole area has these round stones making up the walls. If you look at the stones straight on, you can see hexagons. I can, anyway. Very interesting area.
I couldn't help taking a picture of this - it's the close, closed thing, you know.
Year 2 so far (white papers still clipped to bottom row because they are not yet attached to the big section).
Sarah at Sarah Did It! is continuing to host us on Wednesdays, so please check out the temperatures around the world. Please join in with your temperature project of any kind!
I am reporting the high temperature each day. My Year Two temperature/color (Fahrenheit) scheme remains the same:
