New fun markers in my shop. This set is Lizzy, or Elizabeth Bennett. I picked the colors of the pearls at the last gem show I went to. I Made a Jane and Kitty set as well. Only now am I realizing that Kitty is really Lydia and I have made an error. AHHHHH. I wonder who will notice? I will fix it but maybe I will leave it up for a week and see if some one tells me. You never know. A view of my

Just a little of what I have been spinning up. The colors do not look as great in my picture as they do on the wheel. I have about 120 yards. I am not sure what I am going to make. The color fades from great greens to lush purples and velvety blue.

I am on a kick to find the perfect sock yarn. What does it need?It needs to be be in shades of green and gray and it needs to stripe.Why these colors? It is all because of Studiorent's beads. I have some and they really are quite lovely. But this set of beads is setting me in a spin. If you know where I can find this colorway please let me know. I am in a desperate search....and I am not

I have several Goals for this week. One of them is to make some more of these necklaces. Red and black, red, purple, and a jewel tone cascade of color in different size beads. I just like the picture and the necklace looks good on everyone. I also have at least five sets of my new stitch markers to take pictures of and list. Two holiday shows to apply for. The handmade Nw show at pioneer sq and

Fall is here again. The trees out side my house are no longer green but yellow. YELLOW. When did that happen? It seems way to early for trees to become naked.One of the many great things about Fall is Halloween. Sonny has Halloweened the house already. There are witches, pumpkins, and black cats adorning walls all over the house. Makes me want to knit a black spider web....I wonder if there is a

Little things have kept me away.I keep thinking I will have a few min to sit down and update the blog and my website. It just keeps getting away from me. I have been spending a lot of time working... and of all the crazy things knitting.I pulled out a couple really old projects that have just been sitting waiting for years. I also went though my knit, dye, fiber library. I love books. I can not

A Sale on Surprises! A Surprise set of stitch markers.Just a fun surprise to treat yourself or a friend with. It will come in a cute little paper box and be either sized 13 and under, 8 and under, or sock sized. Just a random set of 5 off my works in progress shelf.

Changing things up a little.Silver ink on black paper.I like it. The stamping part is a little messy but not as bad a glue. Glue is my enemy. My previous cards were white with pink. I liked them but I think I like this better. I might not have chosen this time to start a change but I can't get the pink cards anymore. This is tray one of four or five.Earrings make me happy. They are perfect just

Frankie has been helping me get ready for shows. It is all about the earrings. Lots and Lots of earrings. Fun with brass, sterling, and copper . . . and I have taken a new step and oxidized some of my sterling and copper. It looks great. I am looking forward to a fusing class next week.

I wish you could hear my dog snore. For an animal so small he makes a very large sound.I wish the yellow, red, and orange leaves stayed on the trees just a little longer.I wish for a cookie.Sleep well all!

Funky Short Square Boxes Start the same way you do with the taller square boxes.... I wrote it a few days ago. This is where it starts to change. Add one more fold to this step.Unfold your second fold and take the flat side and fold it up to the line you just made. You now have a lot more lines on your square when it is unfolded. Your lines are going to be the same. Fold the tips to the

Start with a square. I am using a 12x12 inch piece of paper for the top. It will turn out the same size as the big green box above.Lightly draw lines from corner to corner. (Make a big x)Fold the tip of the square to the center of the x. Do this on all four corners.Next with the square tip at the center of the x fold the flat edge to the flat line from the x. Do this on all four sides.When you

I am having fun with book inspired stitch markers.I love reading and never have enough time for it. Recently I have read some books and had to keep them alive a little longer. I always hate the ending its like loosing a friend.If you have read Noel Streatfeild's novel Ballet Shoes . . . I heart you.I am not sure who I am going to do next.
