It's springtime!
I posted my April piece to my blog here if you care to take a look. It is definitely a departure from what I normally do, and coming off of last month's very emotional and kinda dark theme, I wanted to lighten up the mood. I hope I succeeded! Thank you for taking the time. Happy Spring to you!

March done - A Round Peg In a Square Hole
Hi all - finished my March piece. Check it out. I beaded the ruffle around the design in the fabric, which I hardly ever do, but this one was so pretty. Also, the middle fringe is what I originally had in mind, but the 1st one I did had a mistake and I liked it so much I decided to keep them this way. As my friend CA says: Oops Perfect! I'm in Florida now and leave in two days so I guess I won't start April until I get home. Already have my enamel ready for it. Hope you are all enjoying making your pieces as much as I do.
Have a Beady Good Day all. Karen, The Bead Hearted Babe
March project is finished
I never knew how beautiful the ocean was in winter until we moved to New England about 25 years ago. Now it's one of my favorite sites. My March piece is a bracelet like the others, but this one celebrates the flotsam and jetsom of a New England coastline.

Taking a deep breath in March
My word for March is 'breathe' -- what a wonderful word that is. If you'd like, please check the finished piece out at artjourney. The sun is shining today and spring is rapidly on its way.

A behinder's February page
Just a little late, right? Not too bad. I keep waiting for life to slow down a little but I'm thinking that's not going to happen. In any case, I finished my February page, which you can see on my blog. It's a simple page, but close to my heart.
I'm just totally blown away by everybody's work. What a great group to be part of.

Tranquility--February BJP
I started my February BJP on February 1 and finished it February 28. I'm somewhat amused that I again found the beads telling me what I was journaling about. Come on over to Crackpot Beader to see my page.
And let me know if I should 'fess up to my grandsons that I rooted for the Canadian Olympic hockey team.

Making some progress....
But no where near what I would like to have done. I have had lots going on lately and cant seem to find the time to work on my project nearly as much as I would like. I have updated my blog for anyone who would like to take a peek at it, you can go here. I am really enjoying looking at every ones work, such inspiration.
The Beginning of March
I'm so very happy to see March arrive -- last month was a difficult one for me. I've picked a March word out of my jar and it is 'breathe'. I'm ahead of myself (probably trying to rush spring). If you get a chance check out my blog at artjourney to see the beginning of this month's project. More to come later...
