Here are my latest book beads, First on the left are the completed ones , the centre pic is the cane one is made from, and on the right is the back of the little books. they are only about an inch square so you see are small and dainty.
Well as now is a busy time and each day is getting closer to that fabulous time Christmas I have to go and get on with it.
So many people say they dont like Christmas and that it is all a big humbug, just like Scrooge said. Bur think of it, yes it is a chaotic time, but when the day is actually here it's all worth it.
It is a magical time, whether you take the religeous meaning of it or whether it is a time for family and giving, and that is what I like best of all ,the Giving , giving of your self as to making a lovely time for family or just sitting on your own giving yourself a holiday and being able to sit and contemplate what a year it has been. This year I am lucky enough to have a D and a G/ D visit me So what a time we will have. My D has not been here in 6years so am a lucky little elf. My other family will see me next year when I go to them for my G/G Sons 1st Birthday. so what a lot I have to look forward to I am a lucky lady.
I'm sure you will all find your lucky time now it is nearly Christmas, and if not think of all the world where we are so lucky to be part of, and free to be who we are.
so
Soar with the Butterflies
sing a Christmas song,
and hug all around you .
Life is good.
Merry Xmas Love to all

Hi all dont faint here I am,have been thinking about this for weeks but never seem to find the time to be here. thanks to all the good followers who think enough of my blog to take a look.
Like all ,at the moment for me the days up to Christmas are just rushing by and I cant seem to get enough done .
The picture above is of some of us at our doll club. I "pinched" this pic off another site Dollycloth my friend Rita who is a member and is always full of fun and of course the best Quilter and doll maker you ever could see.
Her blog is in the list at the side of this blog DOLLYCLOTH like I said.
BTW she's not in this pic having taken it of course, but that is me in the red on the left.
We had a lovely party that day, no work got done of course.
But all is not lost, I have been following my Cindy Videos and here is what I have come up with of late. I have made more little bead books as Cindy calls them. In fact I cant stop making them and they are becoming real little keepsakes for my friends. so here is some more. Made differently this time with canes I have made with the Extruder.
