The other blue gazing ball in among the hostas...
...but look at the base;
it is heavy marble.
Bill brought it home from a yard sale-
I recognized it right away as an urn for ashes!
There was no lid with it, unfortunately but no ashes, gratefully.
It makes a nice heavy base for the ball now.
I am working on a project that has been on the design wall for quite a while.
The hibiscus bloom is open now
and ready for the rest of the flowers to go on a table runner.
I also need some green batik for the leaves.
I am getting quite a list for JoAnn's--I finished the Sparkly Stars top but need a backing for it-
that's three tops that need backings now!
And today I began a new shawl in handspun Mashom wool, a long wool.
I am knitting it into another Geology Shawl by VeryBusyMonkey.
I've knit several of them but they are just a nice size and drape to stay on
when wearing a sleeveless dress at church! Gotta love that A/C!
That urn is just too funny! It does make a perfect stand. It will be a real conversation piece.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous yarn colors! It will make a beautiful shawl.
ReplyDeleteLove the colour of the shawl yarn
ReplyDeleteAll pretty projects, but I am intrigued with the Hibiscus one.
ReplyDeleteThe urn is surprising but perfect for a base. I like your new shawl too. I feel the same and always carry a shawl it church in the summer. I wonder if I'll even be attending at all this summer?
