Morning Visitor

When DH went to get the morning paper he saw this visitor on the mailbox. He had to go back after daylight with the camera to get the picture. The frog was still waiting for the mailman.

Finished Yarn

Just finished spinning this yarn. It is called Lame Duck Mallard from Spunky Eclectic. It is superwash BFL. I spun it thicker so it is 202 yards, enough for a hat or neck warmer or mittens. Saw my ophthalmologist today and no new changes to vision so that is great.

Spring

Looks like spring around here. Areas north and south of us got snow yesterday but we did not. It rained but today is beautiful and sunny.

Vintage patterns

These patterns come from a time when they were 35cents. Well that was a while ago. My friend Paula sent these patterns to me. I especially like the one on the lower right.
It is cold and raining here today. Snow was forecast but we did not get any. It is pretty rare to get snow here in north Georgia, even though we are in the foothills of the Appalachians.

February Apron

The strap has a bow but you can't tell in the picture. Hearts for Valentines Day.

Spinning alpaca

I am spinning alpaca that I bought at SAFF. It is black and very light grey and is lovely stuff. Riley is where he always is when I am spinning. It is fairly cold outside but the sun is shining and it is a good day to spin.

Apron for Carlton

Carlton said he wanted an apron too. He does a lot of cooking so I made this for him. The square on front has his name machine embroidered on it. The red fabric around the name is a print of pine cones.
