smallhobbit | Challenge No 10: Origami

If everything had gone to plan, this month I'd have been cooking something from a different culture. But without being sure of a day when I could devote myself to the cooking, I decided to go with a different challenge and not one suggested by my flist. As part of my birthday present from my son and his wife I was given an origami set. So I decided to attempt origami, after all, it satisfied the terms of the challenge, being to try something new. I managed all but two of the pieces - those two the instructions were impossible to follow, so I threw them away.

I was also finishing off my cross stitch. I really enjoyed the cross stitch and have ordered myself another bookmark, since I had an Amazon voucher to use. This time it's more complicated, and part of a Monet painting of the water lily pond. I may well have the completion of this as one of my goals for next year. Those of you who remember the little box I sewed from Debriswoman's kit, may like to know I am indeed using it to store my current craft project.
