Some Stuff At My Mom's House

My mother-in-law gave us a camera for Christmas and I've been trying to learn to use it.








These are some things I have given my Mom in the past. First is the tatted Nativity from Ineke Kuperij, worked in size 80 thread.






















These are some crocheted angels with musical instruments. A shame they don't show up too well.



























A crocheted Madonna from a magazine.





















My favorite crocheted angel (I think the pattern book was Pineapple Home) and one of the few remnants of my basket weaving phase.

  1. These are all very lovely Martha. Especially the crocheted angel that you say is your favorite.

  2. All those angel are absolutely awesome! Is there a pattern available somewhere for the crocheted angels with musical instruments? The nativity scene in colour is just stunning. Thanks for sharing Martha.

  3. The nativity and angels, how beautiful they are! My DH and I are basketmakers, too! Your basket is excellent. You should make them again. But all of us look forward to more books from you.

  4. The musical angels are from "Angel Orchestra" by Jo Ann Maxwell, published by Leisure Arts.

  5. Your tatting is gorgeous. Being the Tatting Editor at BellaOnline.com I have people contacting me to find patterns for them. One woman, recently, asked about the pattern for this very nativity set. I wouldn't mind having the pattern myself, but upon searching for it have been unsuccessful. I've done a google search but nothing has come up for the nativity. Can you help me?

    1. The tatted nativity is from a book by Ineke Kuperij. It is under copyright so you need to buy the book.
