Phew!!! Today has been quite the day. I have done a bunch of creative things.
First I started to make a silver heart bezel for a ring that has been in my head. With all the filing, polishing, and soldering that took most of the morning.
Then I had to gather tiny pieces of sea glass and shells to fill the bezel.
I was inspired to do this ring after joining a group on flickr called “Ring A Week” (RAW).
You HAVE to visit that page and see the awesome creations that are being submitted. There are so many talented jewelers there that I have been intimidated to post anything.
This isn’t the greatest picture of the ring. The resin in it is still drying, so it is the best shot I could get right now. I will post a better picture over the weekend.
I also have a rack full of quilts to quilt. Quilt tops that others have made and they have hired me to quilt for them. So I knocked one of those out today also.
I also made some new beads at some point today, and some new earrings, but the beads are being annealed and while I write this post the earrings are in the tumbler for their final polishing.
Then I put some time into my swaps…..trying to finish some pieces for an embroidery swap I am in.
I have had a quilt top in my head for a while now that I started picking away at today also!
You can find a pattern for a smaller block here at my friends blog, House of Krom. It is a free pieced block and is tons of fun! I figure if I do a few blocks a day that in no time I will have enough for a quilt.
It has been a busy, busy day! And some people think I don’t work!! HA!

To me that ring is all kinds of awesome!
Wow, you made that ring?!! I love the heart bezel just by itself, then what you created with the glass is gorgeous!
