A good mail day .... my

OIDFA pin arrived

along with the new Bulletin.   

Nice to have a new issue to read while the rain, snow, continues outside.

I made this lovely origami bag for a GF.   I think she liked it.   

I entered it into the Spring Blog Hop, entry  #50.   Right now, it is 5th or 6th of 61 entries.    

If you get the chance, please VOTE!!!    Voting ends in 2 days.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Irish for A Day

Pattern by Sharren

blogging at Sharren's Random Stitches

I used HH Lizbeth size 20, color 175 (Scottish Thistle)

I enjoy tatting this shamrock pattern.   This year, I had a  nifty tool (gift from Denise) to help with the SCMR:   hackle pliers.     I don't know how I ever tatted without them!!!
