Well... I have some bad news. NO Dragon progress this week.Only 29 stitches have been done.
This week wasn't an easy one. At the beginnig of november we had a lot of holidays: our 2nd wedding anniversary, hubby's birthday etc. Lots of sweets and yummy food and I put on weigh. Though I'm always fat it was too much even for me. I went on a diet. I chase a rigorous one. When I don't eat I can't concentrate at all so I had to put off my Dragon for some time.
Anyway I have stitched a bit this week

Anyway I have stitched a bit this week
- Animal bricks for my son.
No photos. Almost have finished three animals of 6. Now it's just a pile of tiny pieces so I decided not to photo them.
- Firtree
Just for fun. Can be used for a card.
- Too Pooped
Last week my mother-in-law and her husband gave us a big TV 42" as a birthday gift to my hubby and me.
Of courst we tried it. We saw Ironclad. As I can't see movies doing nothing I had to start a new kit. My hubby chose Too Pooped by Dimensions. I didn't stitch much as I had to sort out the threads and other boring spadework.
- Icon of Saint Larisa
Yesterday we visited my mother-in-law Larisa at hospital. She has some health problems but doctors still don't know what's wrong with her. They took different analisys and some of them are for cancer. She's frightened. Last months she lost 7 kilos but now she's putting on weigh. She wants to give up everything and return home to her husband and a small daughter (9 y.o.). We tried to convince her that it's a very very bad idea. I dedcided to stitch an icon with Saint Larisa for her. I hope it will encourage her.

Olga you are beautiful no matter if you put on a few pounds. Please diet in a healthy way eating good food. Drastic diets are not good. I love your fir tree and think it would a great Christmas card. As for the blocks, I can't wait to see them. They sound terrific. As you know, I too am a serial starter but you finish your starts so that is a good thing. As for the icon, I think it is beautiful and I love how the beading is looking. It ia great thing to make for your mother-in-law. You are very nice and kind. Please tell your M-i-law that it is better to wait for the diagnosis and then treat it than to ignore it. Hopefully whatever is wrong can be resolved so that she will be healthy again. Congratulations on the new t.v., what a wonderful gift. I hope you will enjoy it for a long time to come. Thank you for the great blog. :-)
