The Blue Plate Special radio show is streaming from my phone and I’m enjoying the dog days of summer. Ok, I don’t love the heat, but I do love the farmer’s market, weekend breakfasts at lakeside cafes, and thinking about heading south at the end of the month to my husband’s family reunion. It’s in Kentucky near the birthplace of sassy singer, Loretta Lynn. My embroidery project is being plotted and my magazine stack is ready. I love a good road trip.
I’ve moved my studio to the back porch of the house temporarily because it’s cooler. The view is peaceful and I’m embracing it. This is a quick pair of earrings I made for the Jesse James Beads Facebook page that uses the same technique found in this tutorial. I thought they were too darn sweet not to share with you. Like a slice of cherry pie!
Great. Now, I’ve got cherry pie on the brain.
