I have been learning how to do reverse enamel painting on glass and it has been a process for sure. Here is my first piece that I am keeping for me. More in progress. I also learned how to make these little glass stars. I am going to make a bunch in a variety of colors for an upcoming craft show. The rocket is done using a porcelain mold and the bottom cut off a bottle. Fun!

I have been making crocheted baskets
Besides my usual activities of making glass items, I have been crocheting while I watch TV or while on long road trips. I love making these crocheted baskets in all sizes. the larger two are about 8″ across and the smallest is about 3.5″. I made two more mid size in bright variegated cottons, but gave them to my friends as a gift without taking a photo. I think they loved them. I am going to try my hand at a wool basket for my cats that I can felt. The gray basket in the photo is wool but it didn’t felt much. Such fun, useful items. I am also working on a blanket for my daughter in law to put in their camper. I have always been a knitter but I am enjoying the ease and speed of crocheting now that I have the hang of it. I can get projects finished for a change, lol.
