I love these soft bracelets and necklaces. They are so fun to make!

Felted Sweater Bag
Lest anyone think I have not been busy lately here is what I have been up to..... I have been making purses out of felted sweaters. More to come on these, they will all end up on my Etsy site.

My sunshine quilt
Last winter was dragging on and seemed like it would never end. Each trip to the fabric store I was drawn to the warm yellows that reminded me of the sun and summer. I just had to do something with them. I found this pattern called Romantic Patches in the Leisure Arts book 'Quaint Quilts to Love'. It just makes me feel warm and comforted to look at it. It is my instant sunshine for the long winter months ahead.

I started a sweater about 10 years ago and never finished it. So this week I ripped out all the stitches and I am going to start again with a new pattern. I hope I finish this one, I like the yarn. I am using a pattern from a book called Custom Knits by Wendy Bernard. You can get the pattern free here. I haven't done any knitting (except for some felted slippers) for awhile so this should be interesting.

This absolutely darling mini quilt arrived at my home on Friday. There are so many special details stitched into it...so very fun to look at and discover all the unique touches. It has made it's way from Austria to an honored place in my home in Wisconsin. Thank you so much Michi!!! I love it! Michi also slipped a little chocolate in the package...and it was yummy! I hope you enjoy looking at this work of art as much as I am. Many, many thanks Michi!!!!!

FINALLY! a start on my flannel/homespun quilt. These fabrics have been staring at me and begging me to get to work with them for over a year. It feels good to be making a start on this one. I can hardly wait to see it come together...only 9 more fat quarters to cut into and that part of the process will be done.
