spring sprang sprung.
Yesterday I hung out a bit with kathrynt and spygirle at Country Yarns, where we knit and gabbed and generally enjoyed the ambiance. I'm hoping to put together some pattern packs for the absurd flower hat and the felted beaded bag and selling them there. I think for the absurd flower hat a kit might be a good idea, since it uses smallish amounts of some of the colors. We'll see.
Then we went back to kathrynt's house, where she and I played with our tiara-making skillz. We recently bought beads in several families to do element-themed tiaras. She worked on air (which I don't have a picture of), and I worked on fire. I left water with her, and am going to work on earth. And we have enough beads for 2-3 of each element, so we can make two complete sets of four, one by each of us. And then we're pondering shopping them around various woo-woo stores.
Today I made one for spring, having previously played with one for autumn (which didn't photograph so well). Happy Vernal Equinox. And just before I sat down to type this entry, I saw a robin on the front lawn. :-)
Also, we've finally been getting rain. Huzzah.
