WIP-it Wednesday...

...time flies when you have client work!

My quick weekend report: I managed to get some housework done, including bringing the dreaded vacuum monster out of the closet. (The cats disappear very quickly when I do that!)  I worked on Anasazi, the mermaid, and some spinning!  And I started a hat for Halos of Hope on Monday!

Here is the current progress on Denim, an alpaca-merino top that I bought at last year's Stitches West. This is from Ranch of the Oaks in Lompoc, CA. I started this at the January Spin-In.

Denim Alpaca-Merino, as of 2/5/14

I finished beading the tail fins on the mermaid and I'm now beading the "legs" portion of the tail.

Mediterranean Mermaid, beading as of 1/5/14
