Haiti by Hand

One of my favorite Scrapbook Artists (among other things)...Rebecca Sower...went on a missionary trip to Haiti this past December. (before the earthquake)

It sounds as though I know her so well, but I only have her books and look at her blog and drool over her talent.

Anyway, she's organized another fundraiser for Haiti. Her friends are *very* talented as well...but she's also accepting stuff from people like little old me.

The link is here That'll get you to the website & the rest is up to you to follow the linky's.

It's incredibly generous of Rebecca and other to donate their time to this.

The Ugly Green Sweater

After a couple of years, this sweater is finally done! I've gained weight since I started it in 2007! Yikes! But in my defense, it is a heavy weight sweater which is bulky. It's alpaca yarn though and feels yummy. It was time consuming to be sure. The title is due to the fact that many males that I know that have seen me working on this project have dubbed it my "ugly green sweater". Aw well...can't take that to heart...everyone has an opinion!
