These are my two little pieces of the Berlin Wall, picked up by parents when visiting Berlin in either 1991 or 1992. They were visiting friends living in Berlin at the time. They went to an area away from the tourist areas where you could still find bits of destroyed wall. When the wall came down, it was so thrilling to watch it happen and think about the possibilities. We weren't 6 months back in Canada from living in France where we had been part of the celebrations of the French Revolution Bicentennial and Gorbymania had been gripping Europe.

Needle Art
I have been collection knitting needles for a while now. I sort of knew what I wanted to do and couldn't quite figure out how to do it. This weekend, I finally got around to experimenting.
This is not quite finished but I do like the direction it is heading in. At one point I considered adding some weaving through the needles but for the moment I prefer it this way.
Initially, I thought this might do better in a round container and be more symmetrical but I decided that I actually like it in the square and it being more irregular. In some ways it is best viewed from above.
