tatting

#1 from Mini Tats by Patti Duff

Fiber:  Flora 20 

Color 11

#2 from Mini Tats

Fiber:  Lizbeth 40

Color 644

I made the butterfly on the back of the

Starlit Tatting Shuttle package.   A nice shuttle.

I like the Lizbeth thread holders - keeps

the fiber clean and free of pet fur.

These little doodles are fun - nice to use

the fibers left over on the shuttles.

Tried to tat #3 of the Mini Tat book (a couple times) and cannot get it right.   

Will give it another try this week-end.

Ornament

GF Beth made this adorable

punch needle ornament.

I am guessing the sparkle paper is some kind of felt.   

I'm not sure.   I have to find out more!

(the sock monkey is a gift from Karol.)

Thx so much!

I have my tatting out - 

I hope to get a heart tatted by the end of the day.

January First - a.k.a. Laundry Day

Mr. Katt sleeping on the clothes dryer.

It is so windy + some snow flurries outside.

I think Mr. Katt found the warmest place in the house.

Beautiful roses. DH + DS-N

bought a dozen roses from the grocery store.

This artificial tree was a 

gift from DH (before we married).

Usually, we get a pine tree w/root ball; however,

the nursery closed before we got over there.

DD decorated - she chose carefully.   And, Mr. Katt

took down the ornaments one at a time.

And, we'd put them back on the tree.

Mr. Katt thought the tree was just for him.

Probably going back in the box in the next couple days.

happy new year!!!!
