I have been knitting but since it's for publication, I can't show you. And I have been beading, but I hope it's for publication too. So what can I blog about?
How about what this little beaded rose...

...that I posted here in December but couldn't tell you about until after Christmas (it was a present!)
It's a beaded pen cover for disposable pens.

A good friend of mine loves to have flower(s) on her desk. She normally cuts one from her flower beds (which are lovely). And as she loves roses. I was inspired!
The cover is removable when a change of pen is needed.

I'm pleased that I was able to surprise and delight her this Christmas.
BTW, she developed a passion for loom knitting last year...and I'm to blame (evil laugh!)

I think you and I must lead just about the same kind of exciting lives! I think I talk to the cats more than I talk to people!!
That pen cover is a fantastic idea, and the rose is beautiful. I'm sure your friend will treasure that gift....and use it.
I like the idea of beading something that isn't jewelry. Is there a pattern? Are you doing a class?
Pretty! Good idea.
Very imaginative and beautiful to look at!
