this isn't actually new jewelry (i'm working on that), but stuff i've had for while. i picked it up tonight, cleaned it up, took new scans of it all, and updated the info on my webpage. i've not posted this stuff here before, so i thought i'd share. aren't you thrilled? :)

Knitting
I've only so far done really simple knitting patterns for scarves and baby booties. I really wanted to try the kitty hat that was talked about earlier, but I'm a bit put off by the pattern.
How exactly are 'markers' used. Any tips for novices?

Sewing
I got an excellent 50s dress from a used clothing store, but it's a bit sack like so I was thinking of altering it. Shortening the sleeves should be a breeze, but taking it in at the waist seems a bit scary. Any advice?

ok ladies and gents. I was wondering if any of you could make me a a knit hat with a flower on it on the side like Reese Witherspoon wore in Legally blond. Or if you know where I could buy one or find a pattern for it.
I know this is a bit of a long shot.

One of my co-workers got to see Christopher Lowell at a luncheon and got him to sign a book. I know he's a bit of a dorky designer sometimes, but I'm so jealous!

He's inspired me to refinish so much furniture lately. My kitchen chairs now look brand new thanks to that inspiration.
