curlicue necklaces

I made these for a couple of managers who are my new friends at work. I was able to find more of the pendants but I still love the very first one I made and sold a few months ago. The one on the left is beaded with matching size 10 seed beads. The other one has metallic gold thread crocheted with 2 colors of size 10 threads.

Amethyst remembered

I remembered my beautiful needle-felted bear from a private swap with Andrea aka crochetdiva from Crochetville. I got her I think early last year. Thank you so much Andrea for making Amethyst specially for me. She's the most adorable tiny bear and I have kept her in a safe place away from prying little hands. Here she is.....

Need a snow day?

A friend sent this to me......if you join here and make a snowflake, they'll put it here and they'll increase their donation to the salvation army. There are now more than 3M flakes.

An early Christmas present

Thank you for being so generous and sweet! You have made my day! I will treasure these forever and I will always remember your kindness! hugssssss
