The pattern is one from The Tatted Artistry of Teiko Fujito on page 37. I used Lizbeth Size 20 in Col. 152 Christmas Green Mix and Col. 670 Victorian Red. I did not enjoy tatting this but it looks pretty decent. A Christmas coaster in the works? Thank you for your comments in the earlier post.

Year-Old Fur Babies

Two cats from the shelter that Ruz adopted. The American Curl was very sick when she brought her home but after a year, she has thrived under her care. The Bengal has such silky soft fur. He is very playful.

This pattern is from the book Tatted Fashion by Teiko Fujito. Tatted in Lizbeth Size 40 threads in Col. 700 English Rose Medium and Col. 697 Fudge Dark. A perfect size for a coaster. Someone mentioned to me recently that it is too pretty to put a mug or glass on it. Do you think so?

Kolo Mee

I do not remember having this when we stayed in Kuching, Sarawak but these days, this is quite a popular dish in Singapore. Dry noodles with minced meat and black soya sauce char siu (bbq pork) topped with a lettuce leaf, fried shallots and spring onions. This was breakfast on a Sunday morning.

Penang Street Cafe

We found this great little cafe at Funan Digital Life Mall. We had the Spicy chicken rice set and the Nasi Kandar set. It was quite good. Sometimes I just miss Malaysian food.

Easy Butterfly

This is a pattern in Rozella Linden's book titled 'Tatted Hair Pin Lace Butterflies'. I used Lizbeth Size 20 threads in Col. 132 Tropical Punch and Col. 670 Victorian Red. This is the easiest pattern in the book hence the title above. The intermediate pattern is next but it looks similar to this butterfly. I think I will tat a motif from Teiko Fujito next.

New Bed for Tsuru

New shoes for someone, new bed for Tsuru. The shoe box was too small for her but she insisted on squeezing it in and she did, all by herself.

Rose - Purple & Yellow

This is the last one for now. I prefer the larger glass drops but this is the only colour I have in my stash. What's next? I am still not ready to continue with Ben Fikkert's Corona but Fox and Carollyn have done such a great job at it.

Blue Rice Dish

Not GM rice, just dyed with blue flower petals. Served with stir fried minced pork with basil, fried egg and cucumber. This was served at a Thai restaurant at Ion Orchard in Singapore. Lunch and great conversations with girlfriends.
