Camel tapestry from India

This is one of the two camel tapestries Lee brought back from India. The other is blue and green, not as dramatic in contrast, but really beautiful. I've put a few detail close-ups on the blog. You can find them with this link: pieces of the camel. Sorry about the black interference in the corner. That's the TV screen.

Fourth piece of the camel

Here's the fourth piece of the camel tapestry from India. Next time I'll post the picture of the whole camel. It's pretty cool looking with all of the embroidery and detailed stitching. I love the colors!

Third Piece of the Camel and Snow in the Morning

I'm in Bend. After a couple of days of basically dry streets with just a bit of slush and ice here and there for the past few days, we got snow last night. It looked so beautiful and soft, but it wasn't very deep. The temperature was well above freezing by morning, so it didn't last very long. I wonder who walked through it? It looks like a cat.

Here's part three of the camel tapestry Lee brought back from India. The silver sequins and thread are really shiny.

Second piece of the camel

It shouldn't be too hard to guess what this is. Look at all the pieces of different things that are stitched into it.

First piece of the camel

Here's a piece of a gorgeous tapestry Lee brought home from India in November. I love the colors. The shape is also really nice. It's a bit abstract. You can see clearly that it's a camel, but it's not entirely clear what some of the things are on its back. I'll post some more pieces over the next few days, and then - finally - the picture of what the camel actually looks like (that is, unless I forget to!).
