It is from fabric from the 1930's. An elderly woman I knew gave me the fabric and asked me to make her a kitty. I had enough material to make her one and one for me. <BR/>In February, Miss Kitty sits on one of my 1864 green velvet parlor chairs. I am reminded of my older friend.<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-56199243477615678902008-02-13T14:42:00.000-06:002008-02-13T14:42:00.000-06:00If you went out, I hope you came back in quickly....If you went out, I hope you came back in quickly... and cuddled with the cute calico kitty cat. :-)<BR/><BR/>Mari-Nancismilnsighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17207943167502354530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-25206159461495502902008-02-12T07:03:00.000-06:002008-02-12T07:03:00.000-06:00Dear Sue, Day after day of cold is getting to me! ...Dear Sue,<BR/> Day after day of cold is getting to me! I just feel tired. Like too much heat in August or too much wind, it wears me out.<BR/> I read too fast too. My books are over and the escape into another world is gone. I like to be involved with what ever I am doing with total abandonment. <BR/> I used to make things. All sorts of arts and crafts. I still make some things but I need so little anymore. My house is full of decorations.<BR/> Each day I stand at the back door and watch the birds. Each one so beautiful. I listen to my music and wait for the sun or the temperatures to rise. I watch the light. At some point I just cannot stand any longer. I will do what ever I have to do so I can be outside. <BR/> Mahjongg has always intriqued me.<BR/>Perhaps it is the tiles. I saw a set from the 1500's one time. My imagination took flight and I wrote a story about the set and the families that had been graced by the tiles.<BR/>I think I am a romantic.<BR/>Stay warm. Spring will come in due season. <BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-16009572567099391282008-02-11T21:41:00.000-06:002008-02-11T21:41:00.000-06:00Wow!

I play on the computer because I haven't found anyone that plays nearby but I don't really know how, anyway! Rotten at strategy - I'm more of a SlapJack player. Grin. Love the pictures, the idea of tea and play while winter rages.Tumblewords:https://www.blogger.com/profile/04279038951489894119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-54311452932224388702008-02-11T21:30:00.000-06:002008-02-11T21:30:00.000-06:00Dear lisa,When it is 10 degrees, no sun and wind i...Dear lisa,<BR/>When it is 10 degrees, no sun and wind is blowing it feels like -10!<BR/>Brr..<BR/>It really was cold. Glad you were able to get outside for a walk. I know I look a fright when I am out with the birds but they do not care.<BR/>I bet you have a mahjongg set. It is a Chinese solitary game. Some of these games are very old and the tiles could be ivory. I would <BR/>set it out at least once a year and play. A google search might give you the directions and rules. How fun! Fix a pot of Jasmine tea, have Chinese take out and a game of Mahjongg. Now that would be entertainment. If I lived closer I would come and play with you. I would even bring the fortune cookies.<BR/>I am so happy you told me about your set.<BR/>Thanks. It has been years since I have seen one.<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-6755120489652428722008-02-11T13:26:00.000-06:002008-02-11T13:26:00.000-06:00You better puff up a lot to go out today Q. I too...You better puff up a lot to go out today Q. I took Luna to the park and I was bundled up I am sure I looked puffy. :)<BR/><BR/>Looking at your games reminded me that I have a Mar Jong (sp) set that I bought at an auction one time long ago. I have never played it but have not gotten rid of it. I think the kids lost a piece when they were little and played around with the set. Other than that it is in great shape. I don't know what to do with it??<BR/><BR/>I don't know why I told you this. What you wrote just struck a chord. <BR/><BR/>I hope you are warm and happy.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.com
