Featured Etsy seller

I found this Etsy seller selling something I have never heard of and thought was cute. Baby Friendly Beads: Beads for Breastfeeding and Beyond I thought this was interesting. She custom makes and this would be a one of a kind present for a new mom. She also has a 2nd shop Mama's Magic Studio I think both of these are so creative. She also has a blog: Mama's Magic Studio Happy Shopping! Add to: | Technorati | Digg | del.icio.us | Yahoo | BlinkList | Spurl | reddit | Furl |

Sometimes moving on can mean searching for a deeper truth or reality. One day we wake up and realize that we have been asleep in our own lives - living a dream that no longer satisfies.

Vacation knitting, spinning and hiking

Just back from Gatlinburg, TN . Lots of good weather, hiking , shopping and of course spinning and knitting. We could see the leaves changing every day. The colors were inspiring Got to hike everyday. Had to knit some also, and spin some more... Another day and more hiking. It's good to take a nap. And then some shopping here. Some nice fiber inspired by some wildflowers, and some yarn for a shawl. May your needles be as fast as dragonflies...

Felted Tote Bag

I think I will just make 5 of these bags. Here are my next ones.

I added a closure tab with Velcro. Technorati Tags: felted tote bag update and link
