I'm back, finally!!  Sorry for being MIA for so long.  It's been a bit crazy around here and, as I said in my last post, HOT!  So, I've been in the pool a lot and we've had lots of friends and family in the pool as well.  Makes for a fun summer!


The Needlework Market is coming very soon and I've been making tons of jewelry for that.  It's in Baltimore this year (YAY for me!!!) so no flight needed, no shipping ahead, just an hour's worth of driving.  How cool is that?!


It's absolutely killing me to not be posting my new pieces on my Etsy site and on my website, but I know I have to hold out for this Market.


It's been fun using some needlework antiques I've been saving....strawberry emeries, acorn emeries, tiny pincushions, laying tools....fun stuff!
