Good morning! I hope you all are easing into a beautiful Sunday morning, wherever you may be.

I had a great day at the Francisco's Farm Art Show yesterday...so good to see fellow artists in such an amazing setting: not cramped or crowded together, but gently placed along the beautiful winding walkways amongst the trees. I absolutely fell in love with all the Spirit Flags posted throughout Midway, KY. There was just the right touch of music and purveyors of fine things such as Italian Ice, crab cakes, and grilled cheese; not the typical art fair carnival vendors who pull up in their motorized disgusting kitchens pushing every artery clogging fried glob of "guess what this is?".

All and all, it was a completely classy event.

Good times! Good times!

Peace out,

Teresa and Grace

Good morning world! How's your Friday shaping up? I'm doing alright in Ky-ana!

As promised, here is the beaded picture of my beloved Gracie. It is made in peyote stitch using Miyuki delica beads. There are about 3000+ of those little babies in this piece of work...took me a long time to make! (I didn't mention that this is my first peyote stitch project, did I? LOL! That's why it took me so long.)

I made the custom mat by layering ribbons. I know, I'm crafty! LOL!

To sum up this project: Pattern - $10; Delica beads - $100; Time spent - 8 years off and on, (mostly off); Dog it represents - PRICELESS!

Peace & smiles,

Teresa

Hello Bead Heads! It's Friday night and on the verge of another Spring weekend. The weather here is so up and down of late - one day it's August and one day it's January! Here's hoping for something in between.

I just finished a project with Miyuki delica beads which I started about 8 years ago! I will try to post a picture of it soon. It's my beautiful dog, Grace!

Peace and love,

Teresa and Grace
