What I've been up to...

Sorry I haven't been around lately. I'm grumpy and ready for spring and I'm trying not to spread my bad attitude. ;)

Instead of actual productive things, I've been dinking around mostly.

I made another grocery bag:



Note to self: Jeans with stretch in them are a pain in the butt to stitch down as a straight accent piece:



Here's a blurry shot of the actual bag:



And I've been working on beaded ornaments. All. The. Time. It's mindless, and that's what I need right now.



Here's an idea of my progress. LOL. I'm too lazy to dip the ornaments, so I'm just throwing them in a vase for now:

About Me

Boise, Idaho, United States
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury; and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable; and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasion, hurry never; in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony. William Henry Channing
