I am testing this to see if I can send this to my quilting friends.

Rain, rain go away.

A rainy day in Jersey.

Picture from Albuerquerque

I was very taken with the rhinosaurus on the lawn. We saw this the first time we were in ABQ but I needed a picture of it for myself.  I don't think this will be one of my gardening ideas.

Christmas Wall Hanging

It has been some time since I have posted.  I am back to doing different crafts and I will be posting more pictures in the coming weeks.  This is a wall hanging that I made for my parish bazaar to be used as a raffle.  I do not know the person who won it but I hope they enjoy it.  It is being held in our Church hall by my good friend Cecelia Lee.

Update on cross stitch

I have started my first project for 2010. This is a free pattern from Iris Tatting and can be found at www.iristatting.com free pattern #3. I am using Coats and Clark opera in a cream or soft yellow in size 20. This is the same thread that I used for the last doily of 2009. I like this thread very much because it tats up nicely and doesn't catch. I will try to post every week.

Finished Doily

I finished this doily on Christmas Eve. It came out better than I expect and I owe this to Joy McKenzie who kept after me, she told me that it would good after I blocked it and she was right. I am now working on a piece of tatted trim with that used 3 different types of beads.
