I have been beading like a mad woman.  Here are two cuffs I recently completed:

More to come....

Freeform!

The online show of the International Freeform Crochet 2012 Challenge is now up. I am very proud to be a member of this group.  Please visit this show and see the works of all the amazing freeform artists.

My entry was based on George Gershwin's 'Rhapsody in Blue' 

I have also just released a new scarf pattern which is available for purchase through Ravelry or Etsy.  It is called 'If On A Summer's Night...' and the original was made using 450 yards of Malabrigo Lace yarn.  Give me a pat on the back for actually measuring the leftover yarn this time ;)  Give me another pat for making charts for it :)

I made another with Tencel just because.

 More to come soon as I have been busy beading - both freeform and bead embroidery.

it's been a long time, now I'm coming back home

As usual I have been trying to do too many different things at the same time. Lately (since October)) my focus has been on my mother who took ill just before the sale of her home was finalized. Not to go into this in detail, all is well and taken care of now.

I was also in a flurry of activity designing and making jewelery for my sister as she was helping with Dallas Fashion Week. Some pictures below. More to follow....

Now things are relatively calm here and I am really looking forward to getting some Irish crochet work done again.
