makes and kittens

the kittens are all doing well and are very sweet. They are now on solids, and learning to use the litter tray. Which they better get better at soon, as i keep finding little brown 'left behinds' on the floor.

We still haven't got homes for them all and I am a bit worried that we may end up the mad cat family if we are not careful.

This morning their was a big crash while we were enjoying a lie in....the little cute tiny kittens had managed to knock over a picture i had made, and had balanced in the fire place.

Luckily they had just knocked it over making it come away from the frame. The material has all moved around, and a few of the bits had fallen of. I will be able to fix it and will do later tonight if i get the chance. It's not very proffessional but i like it! I did it after a lovely day trip to the beach and it is only the second picture i have done like this.

After all the damage the terrible three did i still let them have breakfast..

and no broken glass so i sneaked back to bed.

Albert tried to look innocent..but i think he was probably the ring leader

i did make a couple of christmas decorations. last year i made a few of these dogs and did manage to sell a couple.

the mushroom may not look that christmasy but it will suit my tree.

i love this dog - he is plain but sweet. (see how i have done dogs not cats..)

I have nearly finished a soldier decoration.

using my usual way - drawing out a template for the clothes






and the body

cutting out the felt

the features all sewn on - i just need to sew together now

while Lettice sleeps in her basket with her dog friends...

busy day and 3 new kittens.

so today i was going to make a top with this lovely material i bought - but yes - the lovely Agnes gave birth and i found myself running up and down stairs all day checking on her and the new babies. the size of her i thought she was going to have 10... but there was 3.

i think this one will be the image of her mum. name...?

dont you think this one looks like a boy?

looks more like a little pig! they are so tiny!

I did manage to do a leaflet for a knit club i hope to start, if i can get enough interest. i used this picture. It's just a few bits i have knitted - i hope it's interesting and catches some interest.

while i was busy with new kittens and washing and making leaflets, the lovely Lettice got hold of the tea cosy i am making at the moment.

Can i forgive her? She was attacking the flowers my sister got me for my birthday. She has been banned from meeting her half siblings until they are bigger.

Maybe she did the tea cosy out of revenge!

any ideas how i can get Joe to let us keep one of the kittens.....
