Sampson and Dad wanted to share their selfie with everyone today. Bobby works from home in the mornings, so while I’m at work he frequently texts me photos of selfies with him and the kitties. This is one they sent a few days ago. Aren’t they cute?!
My Sweet Boys
I also wanted to share about my newest arts & crafts hobby. The yarn store where I get my crochet supplies often has different classes on the weekends, and a couple of weekends ago they had a class on how to make needle felted animals. I’ve never done needle felting before, but the little animals are adorable so I thought I’d give it a try. Naturally, I chose to make a cat – Sampson, to be exact. I think my little Felted Sampy turned out pretty well!
He was a lot of fun to make, and it wasn’t very hard either. I plan on making little felted versions of the rest of my gang as well, but unfortunately they are all a bit more difficult to recreate. Sampson was easy since he is just black and white. Everyone else is stripey and splotchy and spotted – I call them my tie-dye kitties. I haven’t had much luck with them so far, but hopefully I’ll figure it out. When I do, I’ll be sure to share photos of them too!
We wish everyone a happy and Easy Sunday! If you are watching the Super Bowl, we hope your team wins. And if you are watching the Kitten Bowl… well, then… #TEAMCAT ALL THE WAY!!!
