Tangling my way

Just recently I have been introduced to a "formal" way of doodling. Its doodling with a purpose called Zentangling. I could be quite addicted to it I am sure. I have done about seven so far but this one I really like and so thought I would share. It's called Flower Vase.

This photo was taken at Collarenebri when we met up for lunch. My sister Frances, myself and Coral were at the local club. We have all changed heaps since then and lots have happened in our lives. We get along very well and have a lot in common. As we get older we are getting to look a lot like each other to the extent that some of my long time friends have made comments to me about seeing me in different places and I've had to tell them sorry i wasn't there but it could have been my sister.

Cleopatra - R.I.P. 25/04/2011

Cleopatra, my beloved Siamese, went to cat heaven today. She gave me and my family sixteen wonderful years of love and fun. She was a great "mouser" and loved to play. In the evenings she would cuddle up to Ian and get inside his coats to snuggle. We adored her and will miss her greatly.

Just a few little flowers I made at the last scrapbooking weekend away. They are made with a variegated crochet cotton. I love the way these turned out and will use them on my scrapbook pages.

This rug is made with sixteen ten inch crocheted squares and put together with the "no sew" method in black yarn. I have made a nice fancy edge on this one. I love the stark colours.

New crocheted blankets

The center of this rug is made up of twelve small squares and attached to each other by the "no sew" method. I really like the way this turned out.

After a very emotional day it culminated in some wonderful photos being taken at Regina's place.

A happy ending to a wonderful day.
