A few years ago I made this Christmas chess set. Every year I enjoy getting the pieces out and setting them up. This year is no different and today I thought I'd share some of the pieces. The Christmas trees are the pawns. half of the trees are green and the remaining ones are red, The stars on the top of the trees are yellow and the antlers on the reindeer, (which are the knights are yellow, The snowmen are the bishops

Santa is the king

and Mrs. Santa is the queen

The Block House at Hazen Park, Oromocto

A monochrome picture style and a 'sepia' tonal quality and I chose a yellow filter setting. I really like the warm, earthy colour that is so characteristic of our fall environment this tome of year. Anything without a snow covering is beautiful to my eyes.

Butterflies and Fabric

The selvage information on the beautiful butterfly fabric shown above says " Creature comforts butterflies" Isn't it beautiful! I especially like the swallowtail butterflies illustrated on it.
Shown above is a butterfly pillowcase I made for my little granddaughter. I hope she likes butterflies!
Above , a swallowtail butterfly feeds upon our lilac blossoms, just outside my window.

Mug Rug

Its bigger than a coaster, but smaller than a place mat. Its a mug rug, similiar to a small quilt.
Its my husband birthday today so I made him this mug rug this morning. As a result of an interest in nature I buy fabric with nature themes as often as I can. These scraps which I used in the mug rug.really fit the purpose well.
