A bit of a puzzle

Some odd looking body parts have started appearing in The Palace —

An ear perhaps?

Maybe a nose?

Definitely an eye (albeit incomplete)

Yes, you guessed it; I'm pattern testing for Juliet of Tartankiwi again! 

An interesting assortment of body bits.

This is going to be an awesome cat...and quite a big one too. We're allowed to share our progress of this as Juliet has been talking about this latest design on Instagram. She has high hopes of doing a sewalong next year. I'm loving it a lot. You can see more *here*.

In the top of the previous photo I realised you can just see some fruit I harvested today —

I realised yesterday this wee bunch was starting to ripen. And decided to cut it before the birds find it. 

A tangle of grapevines and banana palms.

We had two little cuties come around today; look how big they're getting, sitting at the table to eat —

I used the little white chair and my sister had the cane chair when we
were kiddos - they don't build them like this anymore!

'til next time,

happy stitches,
