Quilt "Santa" Ornament...

These little (well, this one is not so little) "Santa's" are fun to make.  They're not really Santa's or Saint Nicholas's, or woodland men...I'm not quite sure what to call them.  But I think they're cute.  Here's my latest one.



He's not baked yet...I might want to tweak it just a wee bit more....

Clay Day Creations...

Sorry for being away so long...I have a health issue I've been dealing with over the past couple of weeks.  Stupid high blood pressure!  It was under control...and then it wasn't.  So I've been trying to cut back on everything, overeating & junk/fast food, stress, jobs, etc.  And I've been trying to exercise.  It all cuts into my time.

Anyway, I went to a clay day at the end of January.  I made a couple of things.  First up...another bracelet!  Big surprise!




Next up...a little house.  I found this cute cookie cutter around Christmas time at Joanne's.  I thought I'd try silk-screening on translucent clay and put a little luminary in it.  I like how it turned out--I hope you can see how it glimmers....
