recovering nicely

My Mom was a great upholsterer.  I watched but never
tried..... until now!  And I had so much fun.  This chair
is just the beginning!

 It even has studs!

And this is what it looked like in the thrift shop.....

felted gems

I have been knitting and felting lately.  These little change purses were
created with felted pieces from knitting and also from shrunken sweaters
bought at thrift shops.
