Starting

 Starting

       I remember, trying to tat this, when I first learned to tat.  For some reason this kicked my butt, back then.   No problem, now.  The pattern was by Roger Freedman.

Case

 Case

  I had gotten a sling-style case for my new kalimba.  It had a kalimba brand name on it.  I used my thread ripper to tear out the name and added a little tatting to it.  The pattern was by Norma Benporath, "Edging for Embroideries."

Black

 Black

     When I bought a kalimba, it came with an extra set of keys.  I had just enough black walnut wood to make one.  The wood came off of my grandfather's farm.  My "Church Mom,"  gave me the opals from the Spencer Idaho mine.  She had mined them and cabbed them, when she was a little girl.  The kalimba sound wonderful.
