Earth and Sky...

Beautiful faceted carnelian beads linked together by hand. Lovely earth tones with lots of sparkle...
And rich blue turquoise with sterling silver hill tribe bead spacers... a little bit of Earth and Sky to wear!

Hats for Sale and a little bling!

This is my first hat knitted in the round on circular needles. I have found that if i can avoid seams, i'm very happy! We put this hat on the shelf at The Paper Sparrow and it sold right away!
My Mom really liked it but it was a little too big for her and the color wasn't right so i made her this one over the weekend.

And this is the first "bunting" style hat i have made. Since i no longer have a real live newborn baby to model for me, my pillow doll Prudence stepped up to the task... She looks pretty happy!

Ok, so it is hard to get a good idea what this hat looks like from the side when the model has no neck or chin, but you get the idea, right?

And i finished another necklace this weekend for the shop. This one is made of carnelian beads, hand chained together and fastened with a silver toggle. It's a pretty substantial piece, but hopefully it will appeal to someone for Valentine's Day! Now, on to making more dolls! I am so happy they will not be banned from being sold. Thank Goodness they are reworking the CPSIA law...
