New things

Last night in lieu of knit night (it wasn't a knit night week anway) Janet and Jenny came over. Janet brought her rovings and some drop spindles and gave beginning lessons in learning how to get started spinning. It was neat to try. I had to take a ton of breaks for ms. Z. I will definately like to try again when I can give it more dedicated time.
Jenny brought her jewlery making supplies and Janet brought some too and we learned how to make the prettiest stitch markers. I got to make one. I have another planned but not completed.
We had a lot of fun and I definately would like to do it again.
I've been wanting a bracelet for Zuri. I had not designed it yet. This morning since Rocky had the boys I took ms Z to The Bead Lady and made her this. Her birthstone is Turquoise. This bracelet is so tiny and it has just a little wiggle room for growing. The beads and findings are sterling silver.

I made a felted bag called My Constant Companion 2 weeks ago and have been using it as my diaper bag. Today My mommy and I went to MaryJo's to get lining fabric. I can't wait for a moment to be able to sit and sew it!
I also have some new shelves/racks that I'm trying to integrate into the room as I get time to move things around.
