Thanks Kika - superb craftmanship that this lady posse- apparently learnt how to do it at 65.

Here is a link at how Temari balls are made

My mother used to teach craft at the community centre at 98 twice a week.

Sweet Thing (maltese) has the most exquisite wardrobe made by mum. Although it is now a couple of years since she has parted we still miss her at home. The craft reminded me of her.

The lady's craft is so precise and lovely. I hope she does not lose her eyesight and can keep doing what she loves.

 

Seggie. Absolutely breathtaking. I have checked out the website and truly, it does take your breath away. There is one of flowers and I want it. No, seriously, I can understand the patience it takes but how I envy their fingers being able to do it. Still, isn't it great that we can enjoy their work?  I'll go back to it later on and will share it with friends. Thanks so much, Kika.
