My Version...

Of that there Tat it and See.... Day 2!!  When you read the blog there seem to be an awful lot of dancing buns on there!!! (A bun dance)!!!  Ok... I heard the groan from here!!! VBG  But it does make me wonder if the Elephants Foot Umbrella Stand is in actual fact, going to turn out to be Dancing Buns!!! Rofl!!

Anyway, for now, it's definitely still an Elephants Foot Umbrella Stand!!!  Look:



See what I mean??? LOL

Must tell you as well, I contacted Pam Palmer of Tatting Fame last week... asking about some of her books... I have Tatting Treats 1 and 2, and the 12 Days of Silly Season... but I really, really fancied the Tatting Treats 3 AND the Festival Elephant, and the Dragon that she did a few years ago...  Guess what arrived in the post over the weekend??  Yep, TT3, Effalump and a copy of the Dragon!!!  YEAY!!  I'se one happy liccle Pigmini I'se is... or at least I would be if it wasn't for the fact that Pigmini is my car!!! VBG  Now to go through my threads and find some nice colours for them!!!  wonder if that will mean ordering some.... (oops, I feel a thread stash increase possible....) LOL


Anyway, 'nuff said.... Maybe chat tomorrow for Day 3!!

    Question. How many legless elephants are there up in your neck of the woods?

      Apropos of which: my great grandfather was a vet in the Indian Army in the second half of the nineteenth century - he was employed to look after the elephants! Quite amazing, isn't it? He was the elephant go-to person, there was someone else for horses.

    What an exciting lot of new books! AND you've got one of those Dragon shuttles I've been seeing all over town, is it really heavy?
    It can't possibly be an umbrella stand, it's quite obviously a rabbit this year, anyone can see that.Plain as the nose on your elephant's face.
