Herb Garden

Look at this little beauty! I just love it, it really sparkles in person! :-)

Herb Garden: Buttons and Beads

Easter update

Here's the current state of Autumn...she's looking good! The border is going to look very different once I put the beads in -- their colors accent rather than blend with the current ones.



And here is what I worked on while on my trip to Oklahoma City to see Sonja perform in her amazing opera!

Finished project and experimenting!

So I finished my margarita buttons and beads kit. I just love all the colors. All the petite beads took forever because they are completed by doing a cross stitch through the bead. And there were a lot of them! But I think it turned out great. It's going to hang in my apartment's kitchen when I retrieve the frame from home.



And this weekend I decided it was about time I taught myself how to knit (more than just basic knit/purl stitches). So here's what has happened. It's a small baby blanket from a pattern I got real cheap last year. I had to consult some youtube videos for some help, but I think I have it figured out! It's about a 30" wide pattern.



A closeup of the design.

I worked on Autumn this week...here she is!
