A wonderful surprise and a little bit of knitting.

 I turned up at my quilt group and lovely Colleen gave me 2 bags of wonderful surprises filled with 50 cute little pouches/boxes. She said I could use them any way I like....

THANK YOU COLLEEN. I am so appreciative of your generosity. I will put them to good use.



Some times you need a break from sewing. I decided to do a little bit of knitting...


We are having a trade table at the end of the year at our QUILTS IN THE GARDEN day. I thought I’d teach my friend how to make them and try our luck.

First we start with threading a few hundred beads on to the cotton.


Then we knit them


And we knit some more


And hopefully we can get a few of these made


Beautiful BEADED SCISSOR KEEPS...

Knit, Sip and Knit sounds like an excellent mantra. And one can choose their favorite drink :-) The scissor keeps are like jewelry. I'd happily wear them as a pendant on a chain :-)
