Jewelry imput


Besides working on the Dragon quilt, I have seriously invested in working on a short time turn around project, and that is making jewelry. My hobby and inventory has gotten out of control so I had a jewelry party here at home a few weeks ago. It wasn't big but was successful. I have posted some of my items on my other page and will put more up shortly.

Here are a couple of new items to keep you informed.

The Dragon's done


For the first 7 months of this year I have worked when I was able, on this last dragon quilt for Christopher. It has really taken a lot out of me ( i have mid stage PD) so there will be no more big quilts. It was sent out to him for his August birthday, so I didn't have much of a chance to show it off. So this is my outlet. I hope you can bear with me.

Some of the earlier postings have shown where I was going with it, and if you look closely you may see some of the changes. The biggest being the face . . again! My son and best (most honest) critic didn't like the "bonnet" that appeared on the second face so I had him design up an alernative that I could substitute at the last minute. We got that adjusted and it was pretty much done.

The photos will show the progression of the process.
