My lucky day...

First I found this!
 and then....

Something good is
going to happen with the trinkets.
I wonder what it will be.

Hot diggity Dog - Felted style....

Hot diggity dog on a pillow...or a quilt square...

Hot Diggity Dog quilt pattern.
Fun and easy.
You can purchase the pattern here
I also love wool roving and pillows...
So, in the natural course of things
I've finally put them together

Aren't they cute?
I've heard that 
Tangled Threads in Lynden, Wa.
has a wonderful version of this piece.
I think I need to see it - in person...
Field trip!

Spring!

It feels like Spring today!
Warm air - sunshine
Quick!
Go outside and breathe
Look at the little buds on the trees
and check out the flowers.
Wow!
Sure was a long time coming...
 Oh, Sweet!
Easter color wool roving.
Wonder what is waiting to be created from these sweet colors.

In response to Kissing Tommy...

Childhood memories...
Aren't they fun?
My special friend at age 4
was Robbie...
Isn't he cute?
 I sure thought so.
Look at his cowboy shirt and the little metal doo-dads on his pants.
Wow!
Wonderful!

Kitty! Kitty! Kitty!

My cat is so independent...
Most folks don't know I have one.
She's the indoor variety.
As she's aged she's mellowed a bit.
But, still not a snuggler
unless 
it's night time.
Then, she curls up next to me and snores.
My craft/sewing/hobby room is almost workable.
To prove it - 
I made this kitty named
Denny
.
Made with bits and pieces found in the clean-up process.
No! Denny is not kid-friendly because of the
vintage button eyes...
Not everything has to be about children.
Although, my life does seem to revolve around them.
Ahhhh...
That room is getting where it needs to be and
in the process of de-stashing 
I'm clearing my head and creating too!
Life is good.

Me

She looks how I feel...
And for no particular reason!
