My sister is visiting from Tampa, Florida, and spied a fulled/felted handbag while visiting a LYS. I offered to make it for her, planning to finish before she flies back home. In addition to this, I have a fulled/felted Fuzzy Top bag to make for my son's girlfriend's birthday 7/29. suzanneMIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03984809445882650333noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13245958.post-1119304118609677092005-06-20T17:40:00.000-04:002005-06-20T17:50:12.026-04:00Creative Progress!I have managed to bead (and finish) two -- count 'em, 2! -- necklaces in the last week AND get a good start on a pair of knit socks.

My son is home from the Air Force for his girlfriend's graduation this weekend, so this puts a momentary hold on my engaging in any major embellishment projects.
