Tatting Case

Tatting Case

    I found this case (wallet) at a craft show and knew it would be perfect for my larger shuttle.  It had a frog theme, so I needed to add a few more frogs.

It has three pockets in front, a zipper pocket in the middle and a pocket in the back...for $10, I can't make it for that.

     At the next craft show, Kate gave me a matching, little purse and I bought the wrist strap, from her.  

The two, Starlite shuttles, fit perfectly in the front, pockets.

Fully loaded and ready to tat.

My small, tatting case and thread can, fits perfectly in the back pocket.

Hatchlings

Hatchlings

     The hatchlings are staying in the bathroom, until they get a little bigger.

Chatter, likes the comfort of the bed and the company of all the rodents.

Rexy, found a favorite spot, under the chair.  He can also keep an eye on Cera.

Cera, found her spot, next to the pineapple nightlight.

Chatter, found a basket to rest in.

     I like the two-toned tea pots.

E-Section

E-Section

    It's been 72 hours and the egg had not hatched, yet.  I picked up the egg and it was shaking.  I could tell, the baby dinosaur was under stress, so I had to perform an emergency E-Section.  My dad, milled a hammer, on a milling machine, just for this procedure.  ...we now have a baby, parasaurolophus.  We named her, Paris. ...Rexy is happy, it's not another triceratops.

     No, update, on the egg.  Rexy is starting to explore the rest of the house.  He discovered the kid's room.  He met, Gidget, the gray poodle, playing in the corner.  

     My grandparents, gave me the dog, when I was a toddler.   She is made by Chiltern Toys, in England.  I named her, after the neighbors grey, poodle, Gidget.

    Rexy, will not come out of his corner.  Cera walked right up and stabbed him in the leg.  Don't worry, she didn't hurt him, just scared him.  He jumped, right out of the corner and disappeared into the kids room.

    Still having lots of fun, tatting around all these buttons.  Needed another tea pot.

Check out an ice castle on our fishing blog.

Neighbor

Neighbor

  
     The neighbor, who found Rexy, discovered an egg in the back yard...I should say the dogs, Mike and Molly, dug up an egg.  As my neighbor, quickly rescued the egg, it began to hatch in her hand.  She quickly brought it over, and out came a baby triceratops.  

      I named her, Cera (after the little triceratops from, "The Land Before Time").  She is very strong minded and Rexy is terrified of her.  He has been hiding in his corner.

....Cera talks and walks.  The video is a little dark because her eyes were a little sensitive to to light.  You can find her video here...


Hope you are enjoying, Rexy's adventures, Selena.

     I needed a matching pair of earrings to go with my green and white bracelet.
