I know I just posted yesterday but I saw this and I just had to share.  I have never heard of this animal and when I saw it, I fell deeply in love.  They are called Quokka's and they live in Australia.  They are about the size of a house cat and like kangaroos, they have pouches for their young.  Look at that face!!!!

Am I right or not?  This has got to be the happiest animal on the face of the earth.....just look at that smile!

Also, I love cats and when I saw this picture I once again wished that DH was not allergic to them.  I don't know how Vallie would take to a cat in the house, but for this one I'm willing to try.  What a beauty!

I told you about the yarn I ordered from Switzerland....well here it is....the one in the middle.  I can't wait to get my hook into it.  It's scrumptious!!!  The one on the left is a Scheepjes  Whirl and the pink is a new one from Lion Brand.  These are all light weight for wearing here in Florida.

I also did some on My Lady today.  Almost finished with the green and then to add the red flowers.  I hope the top half of the design doesn't take as long as the bottom half did.  

Also, I wanted to find out if anyone else had watched "The Crown" mini series.  I just watched seasons 1 and 2 on Netflix so I'm impatiently waiting for season 3.  In case you're interested, it is about Queen Elizabeth II and when she inherited the thrown from her Father, King George.  I don't know how accurate it all is but I will say this.  If she had to go thru what they are showing in this mini series, she is one strong Lady.  I've always admired her and this only reinforces it.

Well I'll shut up now and go back to my stitching.  I will leave you with a chuckle.  You know the feeling you get when you hear that a new chart has come out that you've been waiting for....or the fibers you needed to start a new project....or that fabric you tried dyeing turns out great.....well this picture captures that emotion perfectly.

Blessings, Barbara
