The Holidays sure do pass by quickly. You work a long time getting ready and it's over so fast! We had a great Holiday week. Finally, all 3 of my boys were home for the week! Got very hectic but was very nice.

| Doug and Kim- Drove in From Texas |

| Alan and Ari- Al was happy with his Great Lakes Christmas Ale |
 |
| Joey and Deanna- The tree Professionals! They picked it out and helped decorate it! |
And we can't forget Griffin! (my Grand Dog) He rode here in the back of a very small car from Texas. He sure was a good boy!

Chasing Flowers
Weaving this is fun! Techniques include 3 rod arrow, using 3 colors of round reed and chase weaving (hence the name!) using 2 styles of weavers- a flat oval weaver and round reed. The metal flowers are added when the basket is finished.
Check out my website http://www.charsweavings.com/ to see several new basket kits.
Also new are the bracelets I made for Christmas presents!
Bracelets are a 2/1 weave with individual jump rings. Charms are individually stamped with the children's initials. I also added the Angel charm. These can be made with or without the addition of the birthstone charm. Think about Mother's Day gifts!!
-for Mom, or Grandma!!
