I was bad today...

Yes I was bad today, but not too bad, I've been looking at this cute little Blueberry & Lavender Quilted Coin Purse for awhile, and finally thought why not? It is so cute its going to make me happy every time I look at it :} especially since its from my sisters shop on Etsy also, http://www.etsy.com/shop/AuntGrace
I used to sew when I was younger and even learned to quilt my own fabric, but I'm so busy now and have new hobbies, like handspinning :} I think I'll let others do a bit of the sewing for me! :}
And if that wasn't indulging enough, .... I needed to try the "Handmade Vegan Soap - Coconut Lemongrass - Thai, Exotic, Unusual" from Mountaingirlsoap. It sounds heavenly, just read the discription...

My Newest Handspun Art Yarns

Hi, Just wanted to share my latest handspuns, the first is a white wool with bright pink Llama swirls, the second is a blue and orange with white stripes, and the third is a new effort for me. The third one as you can see in the pic has a variety of ingredients. I started with a multicolor green roving that included black and white, then spun in eyelash yarn, gold thread, Pink Llama curls, and white Angora Curls for tons of texture and glitz!
