I just had to share my beautiful camellias with you.  They are some of my favorite flowers and remind me of my precious Aunt Leita, in Mobile, who has camellia trees you would die for.  Enjoy...
By the way, my Aunt Leita will be 99 years old in August, and she still crochets beautiful things.  Way to go, girl.

Susie's Necklace

Life has a way of turning us upside down and bouncing us on our heads, doesn't it?  That's where I've been since last post, and very happy to be right side up again.
This is a necklace that I made for my friend, Susie.  It went off in the mail today and I hope she likes it.  The beads, some vintage, and chain are things that I had, along with the key.  The ribbon is some lovely green and purple silk that I got at Sam Flax recently.  It looked really nice with my green t-shirt, but the camera doesn't like it!  Thank you for looking.
