     Wasn't too impressed with this one.  My sister wanted me to try it with her.  I was suppose to have a candle in the middle.

Cocker Spaniell

     I found this adorable puppy on one of the U-Tube sites.  My mom took this one.  A little cheer-me-up present.  Dad hadn't woken up yet.  Haven't felt like tatting.

Hamster

     My sister wanted me to make a hamster with her.  Her daughter liked it so much, now my sister has to make one for each of the classmates.  Their class pet is an adorable hamster.

 

Owl

Owl

     My niece,  who is 10, and my sister are into Rainbow Loom stuff.  My niece wanted me to make this adorable,  glow-in-the-dark owl, on our Rainbow Loom.   Yes, I broke down and bought one of those large looms.  By-the-way, the real looms comes apart,  so you can do different configurations.  I don't know where this pattern was from, my niece had it going.  I gave this one to my dad.  He was still asleep, so I tacked it up on his board.  Hope it didn't freak out dad.

Iowa

Iowa

   This was not a pleasure trip!!  My dad had become critically ill, so I rushed to Iowa to be with him.  Thankfully,  I arrived there, before they prepped him for surgery!  After surgery,  they put him in ICU.  Here are some of the turtles I made for all of his nurses and some of the sick patients. 

 

I said some, there were many more turtles that went out the door!
