Gifts for a Friend

I made these for my friend Cynthia, but did not want to post a photo that she would see before she got them.




Cyn recently returned from a trip to Mexico and she told me that she bought some silver in Taxco. So, I dug out my silver cloth and made up a variety of jewelry bags. Hopefully it will slow any tarnishing. I thought about making a crazy quilted cover for the jewelry bag, but I was worried that whatever was in the silver cloth would affect the CQ.

Today is my EGA meeting and I plan to work on my redwork splasher class sample. I am very excited about getting the chance to teach classes down at Natchez Needle Arts. I hope that we get enough people interested to make this worth their time and money. Either way, it should make for a good Labor Day weekend.
