Lace Scarf



At last a new design! This is a scarf made from lace and wool yarns. I made it on the sewing machine with a foundation of dissolving fabric. I have a large stash of offf-white, white and natural yarns leftover from making Santa beards. They've been in a box in the garage for a while. I also have quite a stash of lace. So I combined these into the scarf. I added about 20 mother-of-pearl buttons for texture. They're hard to see in the photo. What do you think?

AZ Craftsters Meet Again...

Oh how on earth could I possibly pass up a sale at a YARN STORE...? Ha ha. These yarn shoppers are completely psycho if you ask me. Lined up for 30 minutes just waiting to PAY for their purchases... Now if it was a fabric store this would be perfectly normal behavior.

So, the AZ Craftsters met again for coffee and then off to the yarn store and then back for more coffee. Decaf.




Here is a photo of Terry knitting a sock.




Wendy crochets a hat.














Stephanie MADE this crocheted sheep as a gift for Amy. What a nice friend.
Stephanie didn't make it for our group photo because she was purchasing a drum carder from the yarn store.












Here's almost everyone:




From the left Terry, Chris, Chris, me, Amy, Wendy, Denise, and Stacey. These girls are great!
