Happy Autumn

Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin. God lifts you up, takes you in, and washes all the dirt off of you. He opens you up, touches you deep inside and scoops out all the yucky stuff-- including the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc. Then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside you to shine for all the world to see!

Needle Night

Kathy & Susie brought their finished pieces from last weeks mixed media class, so cute.  Love how different they are.

Then Susie pulled an unfinished project from her archives to finish up and Rhonda is working on a Christmas gift.

Needle Felted Santa

A little one on one needle felting class for Eva, who wanted to learn to do Santa faces.

I think we got some good results.

Halloween Mixed Media

With some paint, paper, glitter, pipe cleaners, trims and button spiders we covered an 8x10 canvas.  Then we hooked jack-o-lanterns to be the main focus of the piece.

Lots of fun designing them to suit ourselves.

Rug Punch

Friend and customer, Trish stopped by today to pick up more of my hand-dyed yarn so she can keep punching.  She brought a couple of pieces she's finished lately.  Love the way the yarn had added depth to her pieces (if I do say so myself!).

Hooking Club

What a great group we had tonight!!  Fourteen ladies, hooking away, sharing ideas and learning from each other.  New rugs started, and others finishing up.  Can't wait till next month.

Etsy Site

After talking about it for 2 years, I finally opened my Etsy store (with the help of my good friend, Karen Kahle). 

I've started with my jewelry and hope to add much more.  Such as supplies and products that, up until now I have only been taking to shows and teaching engagements.  Be sure to check it out and let me know what you think.
