Say Hello to Marie....

Haven't I told you about Marie??  Ok... well, she's a Sand Croc and is usually found lurking in the beaches of that beautiful island in the TV series 'Death in Paradise'!!  As you can see, she likes pretending that she is part of the Sand Fly beaches.... likes to imagine that she is a sand fly and you can't see her until it's too late!!! VBG  You can see her featured in the series.... pretending to be a lizard on the 'fence'.....  Oh, in case you hadn't realised.... Sand Crocs ARE sand flies in disguise!!!  If you've ever been bitten by sand flies you'll know just what I mean!!!

Here she is:


The pattern for her is here.  She's done in Lizbeth's Wildflower Garden, as she says that that is the correct colours for her to be rather like a chameleon and be camouflaged!!!  Now you never realised that there were crocs in paradise did you?? LOL  You get to know an awful lot of useless information on this blog!! Rofl

I've also got this to show you:


That Bracelet with it's earwigs AND a pendant... when I find or make a finding for it to go on the chain!!

Now what else.... oh yes.... a pic of my gorgeous granddaughter on the swings!! She loves those Red Shoes!!


The final pic isn't mine, but one of the ladies in our lace group made it from a pattern by a certain Jane E!! Well done to Joan!!!


That's all for today Folks!!

Chat soon

  6. I loved Death in Paradise! - well, the first series. What was the name of Richard's lizard? - Marie would have been right at home with him, living on the beach.
    Red shoes are so special, they say that feet are important. Your granddaughter has Good Taste already!
