I think I'm crazy!

Several years ago, I made a beaded cuff/bracelet which I thought was pretty spectacular. I've since made one or two more which have been well received. Last week, I happened to wear mine when I went in to work (volunteer) in the MacKenzie Art Gallery shop.

The manager of the shop was quite taken with my bracelet and when he found out I had made it, he immediately ordered a number of them to sell in the shop. I was delighted!

I am now trying to get some made. Hmmnn. I had forgotten how much time they take and, of course, there is always the matter of my hand/arm/shoulder. No matter. These bracelets are so interesting to make and so beautiful when done, I'm willing to take the time to make them.

Besides, it's giving me some valuable planning and contemplative time to think about the next step in my bed quilt as well as how to begin my next wall hanging. Yes, I may be crazy, but see how easy it is to justify my work!
