Stars Tatting Baking

Crocheting
 
I will put them on the window - I think they would look nice on the renovation house during Christmas-time
 

I used a magazine photo as background
It is not our vineyard
 
 

 
The stars are from the Magazine "Anna" of December 2011
 
 

 
The trees in the background are from a magazine
 
 
Tatting 
 
Now and then I am trying my skills in tatting
 
 
 
This is called heather edging and I got it free from
this site here
I am very thankful to the author of Be-stitched.com
I am so interested in learning this craft -
 
to make little bits like the following
 

 
This was published in the magazine "Anna" of Dec 2012
It should have been a star but the tail of thread was not long enough.
So it turned into a square which is not bad at all.
The yarn is rather thin, the motive measures 3,8 cm
from point to point
 

 
It is a nice decoration for the tree
5 cm from point to point
 

 
I started this one long ago
it turned out too big so I simply stopped and
will hang it as it is on the Christmas-tree -
asymmetrical which I like
 
 
Baking for Christmas
 
Goodies from kitchen and sewing machine
 
 
do not eat each
take care when you pick your choice

 
Some are made of silk, embroidery thread and beads



 
My statement:
 
He is the cook - 
the man of the house

I did not move a finger

Kokospralinen
 
 
It took him 3 afternoons
He is really the hero of the hour!
