Friday Finish - Rapunzel

I don’t have plans to frame or do anything else with it for now, so I’m considering it finished. The size is about 18.5 inches by 8 inches.

Four Seasons Kogin Progress - I finished the second section, summer.  I will start working on the autumn section now.

Toki, who blogs at 私がめがねをかけるとき, and I are both stitching this kogin piece. (She blogs in Japanese, but there is a translation button on the top left under the title, if you don’t read Japanese.) Check out her progress!

Yesterday’s Mt. Fuji from my apartment. Still no snow.

Rapunzel blackwork - this is an old Marion Scoular design that has been packed away for a very long time. I pulled it out to check the thread and decided to work on it a bit.

Kogin Four Seasons progress - I worked more on the summer section.

Last week, Lyn commented that she thought the 1 chi thread might be like floche. I don't stitch with floche often enough to know, but I did have a project using floche, so I pulled it out to compare. The floche is a thinner smoother thread.  The 1 chi is thicker and rather rough.

Summertime Mt. Fuji progress 

This project is very fun for me. Mt. Fuji's 25 connected/related sites were recognized in 2013 by UNESCO as a cultural World Heritage site. I am depicting the mountain and a few of the other sites in this piece.

Sengen Taisha Shrine, Fujinomia

Miho no Matsubara

Shiraito Falls

And of course the summertime mountain, without snow, just clouds. (View from my apartment yesterday.)
