Garden

Getting ready to plant some vegetables.  Started some from seeds and they're actually growing!  Also received some plants from mail order and I'm getting them out into the sun.

Mother of Pearl Bracelet

Just finished this Mother of Pearl Bracelet for summer... would make a great Mother's Day gift also.  I'm planning to make earrings to match.

Yo Yo Bunnies

I teach a class at our township Senior Center.  The ladies in my class love to make fabric yo yos.  We recently made this family of Easter Bunnies for Spring.  They are made of felt yo yos of various different sizes.  We used dowels, doll heads and wooden wheels for the bodies and pom pom for paws.

New Greeting Cards



I've been working on some new greeting cards using my die-cutter and hand-cutting images.  I'm using a little glitter here and there also.

Pineapple Quill Art

I enjoy quilling, but don't get to do a lot of it. I did this pineapple quite awhile ago. It took some time to do; getting all of the yellow pineapple pieces about the same size. I used water-color paper for the background.
For the frame, I took a stretched canvas and turned it backwards. It used it as a shadow-box. The frame was painted, cracked and edged in gold to give it a vintage look.
