It’s been so crazy busy around here that Jim and I have not had much chance of keeping up with our spool knitters.
A few weeks ago, I begged him to puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze spend some time at the lathe for me… so, bless his heart, he picked up his chisels and started turning….. yay!
Ah, bliss….. I love having all that ‘blank canvas’ potential!
And here’s what I’ve been up to in betwixt and between meeting book deadlines…
A Fairy Door Mighty Mamma…..
There were 2 Homages to Jane Austen, but one of them has already flown away.
This Jane Austen is wearing a blue cloak.
And, last but not least, this Mighty Mamma is going to be a Gnome’s garden….. when I have a chance to actually finish up the painting!
For now, the little Gnome Girl is looking longingly at her empty garden, wondering when it’s going to bloom?

I’ve admired your spool knitters for a while… maybe it’s time for me to start collecting them!
LOL! Oh, Diane, I like your attitude! :O)
Lucky you to have a man with a lathe!
Indeed, TattingChic! I am so blessed! Not only is he gifted at the lathe, but he’s a fabulous musician and totally wonderful guy!

Lucky indeed!
