Feathered friends

Sometimes the wildlife bring such a smile to my face




Progress with The Squares




A batch of squares for my crochet blanket.  I have laid it all out and I need just 3 more to position them and start joining.  Don't hold your breath!

Facebook came along and the rest is history.....

As usual, the road of life offers choices and consequences, and sometimes it's good to get to the roundabout and head back to that spot that is like home, especially if you left things unfinished.  I was in that comfortable spot 5 years ago, when 3 life-changing events in 6 months altered my 'choices', and then a revisit to my blog got sidelined by Facebook and work.  In my defence, I avoided Facebook until it became the tool to enjoy photos of my granddaughter who lives on the other side of the world, and to have glimpses into the school lives of my granddaughter and grandson who live 600km away. 

Then......technology impacted and my new computer system changed my photo storage, and finding this part of the computer 'scary' and not wanting to wipe my precious photos I didn't fiddle with it. My son has come to my rescue and restored my old system so that I can access old photos in a much more identifiable way.  So I am back to see if I can catch up here and continue, time (or lack of free time) will tell.......again, as they say. 

A Laughing Purple Goldfish pattern called Sizzle made for Tori.  I find crochet toys and my fingers are not super compatible any more.



These are the beautiful...and interesting things that were being worked on at Monday spinning days by our group:






For all the HP fans, this was made by Fran as a hot water bottle cover for her daughter.
