Still beavering away on new items....

At last she's back....

So relieved to have my baby Samantha (34yrs old!) back home again with us. Well they're always your babies aren't they? No mater what age, and after the horrendous situation she has been in for a few months now, well she can now heal and gather her thoughts in the safe and loving environment of her family. Welcome home darling.

I think winter has hit us now.....

Apart from toddling outside in the garden to sweep up leaves and do the odd tidy, nip into town for the odd shop, and of course the never ending housework, cooking, washing, ironing bla bla bla...........

Life is pretty good. Got the beading bug back (bbb) and trying new things with satin cord, such as those wonderful Chinese Knots and also trying my hand at 'Diamond Glaze', so far not hav

ing much luck. But try try again I will. Here's a few items to at least keep me entertained......

The latest in new knots for me is this Phoenix Tail Knot.

Second attempt at glazing. Unfortunately when I added a second coat, two of them cracked! BUT.......I fixed them.

First attempt at glazing. Not bad actually.

Samantha....

Slowly very slowly the muse is returning.....

Working with silk cord is far easier than wire. I will carry on with this theme until such time that my hands can tackle the wire again. Good things take time you know.......

Top photo is a Coin Knot. Bottom photo is a Snake Knot. (my favourite).
