Peacock Scarf for Theresa

I've been working on this scarf for a few months. I put it down for a while but I realized Theresa, my best friend's birthday is tomorrow! So I had to get on the ball to finish it. It is almost done. It is made in a Peacock stitch with Marisol Qina Yarn in Jungle Green. 80% Baby Alpaca & 20% Bamboo. It is one of my favorite yarns. It's super soft but I found out it is being discontinued. So I took advantage and bought up enough to make this scarf for my bestie. Love this stitch and it is fairly easy. I'm looking forward to spending the day with Theresa tomorrow. We are having brunch at the Bear Moon Bakery & Cafe and window shopping in historical  downtown Boerne! Have a great weekend!

Radishes Painting

I realized I never posted my painting of the radishes photo below. These radishes were planted from seed in Vermont. Then harvested and photographed. A few years later I decided to paint them in Pastels. This painting is now sold.
