| Embroidery with beads around a cabouchon. the bead in the middle has a diagonal hole, so I added some beads to hide the thread! A few more rounds to go. |
 |
| Last week we encased a large bead with peyote stitch. To be made into a bracelet with some more of the same |
 |
| Polly Molly Cat from next door came to check us out. She sneaked off upstairs to snuggle on my bed. |

| Happy Birthday Bev of FABBEV |
 |
| And buns for the tea party that Dot hosted! |
 |
| The apples are about 2 inches across at the moment. |
 |
| This is a miniature tree - growing to about 6 - 8 feet tall. It has three different varieties of apple, so it's self fertilising! (Technical gardening stuff there - hope you're impressed!) |
 |
| And while I'm taking photos of the apple tree - here are the two oak trees. These were planted on 20 October 2008 from acorns taken from my late brother's oak tree. |
 |
| On Sunday Scrappers they made this little book from a sheet of card - so I made one too - it has spaces for little tags. |
 |
| Then they made a little wallet - again from a sheet of card - it should have been double sided, but I didn't have any to hand. I also felt it needed a sleeve to keep it together. |

 |
| Two weeks ago on Sunday Scrappers they showed us how to make a triangle book, I covered mine with 'Paris' papers - we went to Paris in 2000 and I still haven't put the photos anywhere! |
 |
| I artistically arranged 'French Flag' ribbon around the mini book. |
 |
| A crochet baby play mat. (hope I haven't shown you this before) I finished it a few weeks ago. |
 |
| The four beads I made |
 |
| ...and the same four beads from a different angle! |
 |
| I made the black and white stringer, but had trouble making a bigger bead, so my friend took over!! |
 |
| Made another staircase spiral necklace with black, turquoise and red beads. |
