Quietish

Luna talks a lot. Thought I’d letcha see.

The kids can be heard in the background as well. And you get a peek of craftiness.

My very predictable SPS.

Here’s hoping I have more bloggable stuff to post this week.

Meet our freshly adopted, remarkably vocal, difficult to name, happiness-prompting kitten.

Think she’s cute? Too bad; You’ll have to get your own. Luna comes from the Paul’s Valley shelter (PAWS) and there are many more where she came from. And please remember: Spay and Neuter!

I haven’t been using a pattern to make my owlies. Rather I looked at various images online and worked out how to make them.

Melanie from the comments just brought a lovely link to my attention. I didn’t use this tutorial, but it should be quite useful to those of you who are hankering to make them:

For this month anyway. And likely until at least after PR.

Done and done. For now.

Onto the next tasks on my list, each of which involve paper, DMC floss, ink, or a combination thereof.

I don’t have a whole ton more to report:
weather = rainy
walking = happening anyway
knitting = one sock done, one to go
other knitting = still haven’t picked lacy thing back up
crochet = on the brain, but not so much on the hooks
kitten fever = raging

Skipped SPS yesterday. Here, lemme get a webcam pic right quick… Ok, here you are.

And now for more important cute matters:

Off to do some more…

Help me. I can’t stop. making. owls.

No really. I can’t. I have at least 11 more of these to make. Although I bet I won’t stop there.

Evidenced by the fact that I took a break from fabric owls today by crocheting an owl.

On a mostly unrelated note: If Cox doesn’t get my internet connection moving any faster, I might have to eat my keyboard. Crunch, crunch. That is all.

Hello kind readers,

I am hoping someone here could direct me to a place where I can buy nice felt. I have plenty of crappy acrylic felt, but I want something a little more substantial and possibly touchable. I’m thinking wool. Do they make cotton? That’d be really nice too.

It’d be great if I could just walk in somewhere locally so I could see and touch before buying, but I’ll go to an online source if that’s my best option.

Thanks and cheers!
Rosemary
