Thank you for your recent visits and comments! Here’s a new pattern called Pomegranate Patchwork. Curvy intarsia inspired by stylized pomegranates, symbols of fertility, fruitfulness and abundance in Mediterranean textiles. The rounded shapes are created by increasing and decreasing within a chevron pattern.
Donnie was recently given some strong medication after what the Vet referred to as a “dietary indiscretion” –

He made a quick recovery!
