Over the festive holiday season I made owls from Jessica's blog ,
click here for the pattern. Also some birds. I like to work on hand projects when I have people visiting so I can hang out and visit . The owls are addictive! The last of my company left on Sunday, the 3rd, and before I had a chance to miss them,

this guy moved in!

And he brought lots and lots of friends!! So, all week they have been hanging out with me, keeping me company. Lucky me!

I still keep a pile of stuff handy but those awful visitors are requiring all my attention. I don't think they'll be staying much longer though. One can only hope. I do enjoy looking at my stuff and making plans for more stitching!
