Crafting update

We just finished up our art lesson for school.  We're trying some watercolor painting today.  We'll finsh it up tomorrow.  I'll take pics and post, if I can get my camera phone to work.



The oatmeal bread came out of the oven about 1/2 an hour ago.  In time for lunch. 


 


I finished knitting a pair of slippers for my dh.  They are the ones featured in the last issue of Countryside Magazine.  A very easy pattern.  I started crocheting a baby blanket.  It's slow going.  I couldn't find a pattern that I really liked and just started one that I had here.  I've been spinning the fiber from my black goat.  I really like the yarn that it's making.  I'm going to crochet a wagon wheel shawl out of it when I'm done.  



This is what it should look like when it's done.



I finished making my mom a bird feeder out of clay pots.  It's kinda hard to explain, but I think it turned out nice.  I'll probably have to make a label explaining what it is.  I don't think anyone would know otherwise.



I guess that's it for the crafts update.  I'm looking for a sampler pattern for my daughter to embroider.  One that uses all types of stitches.  If anyone knows of one could you let me know?


Stay warm.

Just passing thru and stopped to say hi--we had beautiful frost on all the trees and so forth today after the fog lifted a little.
