Fall Horsies, Bubbles and a Loomed Wolf This update I show you some Fall horsies sporting some lovely little hats. While I did not weave the hats are make them out of felt I did decorate them. The only reason I am not making the hats is that it is ridiculously time consuming to make them. I did try. It…
I posted Fridays video on a Thursday because next week is our anniversary (wedding) and to celebrate we are going on an adventure of some sorts on Friday. I do not know what we are doing or where we are going as I, quite confidently and possibly stupidly, said “I trust you” to the Honey. So who knows. I’m up…
One of the tools I use a lot was invented by Sir Isaac Newton. It is a color wheel. Although I have an intuitive knack for picking colors, a color wheel is helpful to have a round when you are not just sure. Perhaps you have challenges with color combos. Nothing to be ashamed of.

I was asked a few questions recently about the Horsies I have been crocheting. Although I think the person was just wanting to talk, I decided to go ahead and answer some here.

There are a couple of things we can use to know the difference between real and manmade. Price: Let’s face it, you are not getting a stand…
This might be a rather long post so I am going to split it into hopefully only two posts.I am going to talk about what is a gem and what is just a rock. Don’t get me wrong. A pretty rock is still a pretty rock. However I buy a lot of beads and I would like to know what I am…
One of my favorite new stones is Jasper. In particular, Picture Jasper. It is called so because when the stone is cut,the combinations of patterns look like they might be scenes or images. They really do. If you put all of them together in a certain way you would have a scene of perhaps, a seashore or a mountain. You won’t,…
I love to loom. I find it very peaceful and relaxing. I also love what one can do with a loom. The art work can be as intricate or as simple as you wish. I had my honey make me a very large loom so I did not have to make a piece in strips and then sew them together….
