First Photo with new camera...

Well...........,  I always leave my Christmas Tree up until January  6th            Old Christmas       but, a bit longer this year 'cause I was determined to get a photo with Dru Ann Macarty's lovely Paper Face Santa that I   bid on. I was shocked that I won one of the ten she offered, it is so sweet:) I love old soft cotton batting and I will treasure him for a long time, I hope. Maybe, clicking on the photo will enlarge Dru's sweet santa with a candy cane she also made.
I discovered that as I get older I do NOT like having to read and learn a new camera....not sure why, it just made me a little nutz so I put it off...decided last night was the time:) Also, this new comp arrived a day late and had to learn its ways also...I miss the known, familiar old photo set up and ease.

We are moved into our new shoppe area...so, I can relax a bit and read more of your wonderful blogs...take care all.

    Your tree is beautiful. Love that Sants, he looks really vintage. I am with you on reading the camera book. Ick! I am not good at picture taking. I finished my first 'new' vintage potholder and posted a pic on my blog. I am so in love with it. Starting on my second one today~~

    Gail, here is the link to the website with the rose granny square potholder. http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.crochetpatterncentral.com%2Fdirectory%2Fpotholders_etc.php&h=13b4d There are lots of potholders on this list. I want to make the little dresses also. Just finishing the petals on my second one. I have been out playing in the snow. It is 29 right now and feels balmy compared to what we have had. Some sunshine here also helps. Let me know if you make some of these...I would love to see them.

    Thank you Mary:) I see the vintage potholders and touch them, wanting them...I am anxious to find time to create a few of them now for my collection. I will post them when I get a chance.

    You pastels are so pretty:)
