Rachel:
A
dark forest of trees, with shadows and light encompass the jacket.
A touch of silver shimmers like frost in the sunlight.
Black
moss hangs from the trees, blanketing the forest, in gentle silence.
This quiet scene is like a crisp day in a quiet forest in the depths of winter.

Kristina made this wonderful white on white,
coiled necklace.She covered
the necklace with
strips of fabric and then wrapped fuzzy yarn around it.
Her favorite animal is the cat so it’s
not surprising
that it’s adorned with cat decorations.
Bobbie ripped narrow strips of silk and sewed them onto this jacket.
The bright strips against the dark fabric are a beautiful combination.
