Kitty Knitter!
 

Now adorning my refrigerator is this brilliant work of art, which I received in the mail from my adorable niece Samantha:

Samantha is my brother-in-law's oldest daughter. When we met two years ago, Samantha and I bonded over crafting. I taught her the basics of knitting, and her little six-year-old fingers picked it up surprisingly well. Now, Samantha and I are solid crafting buddies.

The kitty knitter is colored orange, after our cat Estelle.

And, here is Samantha, as my flower girl, telling me about her latest art project:
Remember, crafters, the importance of recruiting the youth into our fold! :-)

  1. We love it!!! Especially since I didn't even know what she sent to you! She just handed me a sealed envelope and told me that she wanted to mail it to you. It was so exciting seeing the kitty picture, your kind words and great photo on your blog!!! Thanks for doing that! That was so sweet.
