It has been awhile again since I have posted here at my blog. I spend a lot of my time making plastic canvas gifts and writing for my blog.
I now have 61 stories about Family History, and my crafts and reviews of movies and books as well as family recipes.
My crafts stories will have include a lot of FREE Plastic Canvas patterns. Links will be there for the patterns I made and other patterns at Pinterest.
Photos of some of the Halloween Plastic Canvas I made with the patterns at that link:

The Halloween link also includes the link to my previous Halloween craft story. Many free patterns I can send to you via email. Leave a comment here and I will be glad to email you the pattern.
My Cats
Benny will be 6 years old this month! Batman and Robin turned 2 years old in May.

Left to right Benny, Robin and Batman
Batman is in the center he is the lighter cat. The twins are hard to tell apart.
Benny comes in and sits on me in my bed for attention and loves
Robin and his cone sleeping on my bed
Poor Robin, above with the cone, got ahold of a bathing suit top with string ties and chewed off a piece and swallowed it. It got tangled up inside of him and he had to have an operation to remove it. He was sick for a long time, but he is well now. So we have to be careful what we leave out for him to get into. We found out he has a heart murmur. They did not detect this when he was fixed last year.
Batman and Robin are indoor kitties so they get into mischief. We have given them a plethora of toys and change them often. I think in time they will settle down.
Benny was having stress when we moved in December to our new apartment. He licked off his fur again on his hid quarters like our last move 2 years ago. It now has grown back in. He used to be an outdoor kitty. He cannot go out here as they do not allow it and we are on the third floor.
We plan on getting a single level house for rent and then he can be an indoor/outdoor kitty again.
My Mother
Mom had her 84th birthday in April! She had been doing pretty good for 84 until she fell again July 2.
She has been in the hospital with a bone fracture in her spine and bowel infection. She is in a lot of pain. We are not sure how long she will be in the Hospital and then to a rehabilitation facility after that to recover. Here is a photo of Mom on her 84th Birthday this year.

New Projects
Besides trying some new crochet projects for Christmas gifts this year, I am going back to some beading for bracelets and key chain holders.
I have ordered beads from Fire Mountain Gems and Beads and purchased some from WalMart.
Photos in the next blog post.
Key chains so far with plastic canvas:
This was made on Plastic canvas size 10 which was too small for my needle and it was pretty hard to do.
Some other Plastic Canvas I did this last four months
Fourth of July patriotic decorations
Minecraft Creeper Kleenex box cover

You can see more at my stories from the link above at Squidoo.
