Like I need a new addiction. I call it my new CRACK! LOL Not really but it is something new that I am enjoying and can be as expensive as drugs (I imagine). So I decided to go to a local yarn shop yesterday - Blazing Needles in Salt Lake - (Cool place with friendly people btw) - something that I have been avoiding because I KNOW I will buy something and guess what I DID!!!! Go figure. I think someday I want to have a yarn/bead shop so I can indulge in my favorite activities full time....
I am sooooo EXCITED about my new project. I recently finished this bag that I had knit and felted and THEN I added handmade "BLING" to it. The beads are handmade lampwork flower beads that I made as well. I am on my THIRD bag now and just LOVE to knit them. Can you tell I am excited about this. :) These are pictures of the first bag before felting and after and then a second similar bag that is a gift. My third one is a little different and almost done. :) I wanted to add a couple pictures...
I finally got around to picking the winner for my earring giveaway. I had a co-worker do the picking and she chose Shannon. I hope that she enjoys her new earrings. Have been busy with the bead making and yard work as usual. Got to see some of the kids and grandkids this last weekend so that was nice. Here are some new pictures.
My roses this year are absolutely positively PERFECT! Just wanted to share that. :) and these pictures. Oh and there are some bead pics here as well. Have a great Monday! Almost forgot. I need to pick the winner of the earrings - should have done it last week. Oh well... too many things going on. I will do that a little later and post here who the lucky winner is. :) Pam
