Last Project before Moving


I am moving to Springfield, IL tomorrow........I have been living with a family who are my friends too......Fred, Mary, and Abigail......Mary is the one who has taught me how to make jewelry and this was one we worked on together but separately-she made one for herself and I made one for me. I will come visit so we can make more beading projects together........I am moving 4 1/2 hours away...it hasn't hit me yet how far it will be, but hopefully there will be a good bead store there and one that has classes so I can learn lots more.

Present for Brittany




My friend Brittany LOVES tea! I saw these cute teapot charms and they reminded me of her. And I remembered that her birthday is in August (actually today) so I decided to make her a cute teapot charm bracelet. I even found a cute teapot and spoon clasp to go with it. I gave it to her yesterday and she loves it!

My Purse





A few weekends ago I was visiting some family in Springfield...I have wanted to sew a purse for a while now, but just haven't, because I am not a big sew-er.....I come from a big sewing family and when I was in Springfield my younger sister Molly was making a purse and invited me to join in....She found this reversible purse pattern on Martha Stewart.com. It is really cute and I did a good job for my first real attempt at sewing something big. Thanks Molly!
