      You thought this would be another tatted flake.  This is a quilling flake.  I had bought an extremely large box full of new craft kits, at an estate sale.  A quilling kit was in that box.  This was a lot of fun!

Quicky

Quicky

     This was a quicky, little flake, using two strands of rayon and one strand of metallic gold.

Slushy

The fish are still biting,  but getting very slushy on the ice.  These warmer temps aren't helping!

Lots of Snow

Lots of Snow

    The snow is really flying around here.  Working through Pinterest Motifs.

Blues

   This little snowflake, from Pinterest, was made with a blue/white rayon thread and a silver metallic thread. 

Washed

Washed

   The green/white thread was washed out.  It looks better in person.  These little snow flakes were really cute in person.  They came out to about 1.5 to 2 inches, using the sewing thread.

I See It

    I See what Jane's, 2016 TIAS, is.   It's an inch worm with an umbrella.

Jot It

    My sister gave me the new, 4.5 JOT by Boogie Board.  It's a pocket size version of the larger one.  I love this one, it fits in the pocket of my purse and it has a cover to protect the writing.   This is grat for little snowflake patterns.

Snow

Snow

  
     It's that time of year, time for the snow to be flying.  I made a bunch of snowflakes to send in Christmas cards.  They were made with three strands of sewing thread (2 strands rayon and one strand metallic).  The pattern is "Snowflake 2009", by Sharon Briggs.

Hard

Hard

    This Model T car was very hard to make.  Lots of forming and little pieces.  I definitely had to use my granny glasses for this one.

I broke off one of the snifters, while making it.
 

Easy

Easy

     This Wrights Brother Plane was easy to make.  Not much forming.

Steel

Steel

    Here is another steel model...SR71.  The hardest part, so far, is finding the correct object to form the metal.

 

New

New

      Time for something new.    This was a model, my Dad, never had time to finish.  Here you go Dad.  This is a steam engine from Metal Earth.
 

 

Lessons

     My little sister started taking acrylic painting lessons.  now I'm a proud owner of two of her beautiful paintings.

Dressed Up

      This, adorable,  mouse is all dressed up to go shopping.   My mom made it on her new sewing machine and gave it to me for Christmas.
