Snowman Latchhook Rug

The busy-ness of this week left me pretty tired in the evenings, so I relaxed by listening to my new book tape from the library, Miss Julia Meets Her Match , by Ann B. Ross, read by Claudia Hughes. It’s good, and while listening, I have made lots of progress on the snowman rug.

We had a belated birthday party for my 10-year-old daughter Eva yesterday. Our party project was to decorate a frame with polymer clay. The only tools they had were small cookie cutters and the pasta machine, which is always popular among kids. We took a photo of the party-goers and put one in each frame. They loved it! I wish I had taken a photo of the finished frames. But I didn’t and I can’t even find the photo of the cake. It was supposed to be a beetle. I later exchanged the cherry sour eyes for lemon drop eyes, which looked a little better.
