Some crafting over the past month

Well, it's been a month since my last entry and I have lots of creations to post. For months I did so much thinking about crafting (mainly sewing) and not much creating. It must have been Christmas that did it, but over the last month I did more creating and less thinking! Yeah!

Unfortunately, I gave most of my creations away before I photographed them! Oops! Actually, I have a bad camera and am always looking for the best light. By the time I remember to take photos, the daylight is gone and so are my creations!

After my first attempt at a necklace (a few posts ago) I decided to make a few more for a few special ladies-my mom, mom-in-law, and sisters-in-law. I think they turned out pretty nice and I was able to personalize each one with a bead pendant/dangle that reflects the style of each lady.

I also made a backpack for my neice and I'll have to post a photo later.

Here are 2 photos of the 5 necklaces I made:
