If you've been following along with my new adventure into the art of lapidary. Then you've seen my 1st 10 Bamboo Mountain Turquoise cabochons I posted yesterday. This is one I chose for myself (squeal) but if you're interested in a ring for yourself. I have the sister of this stone still available on my website. .

I’ve been teaching myself punch embroidery. It’s an old craft but it’s so relaxing (once you learn the technique). I tried using a regular embroidery hoop it didn’t work, the fabric was too loose and the thread would skip. So I bought a hoop that has a lip to make the fabric drum tight. Also, you need fabric that’s tightly thread. After getting the right tools to work with it was smooth sailing.⛵️ 🙌🏽 For practice, I drew a simple pot with leaves and traced it on the fabric. Scrolling through Instagram I saw that my Insta-friend @mlpizuorno is taking a class in punch embroidery and she is doing a wonderful job! Go look at what she’s doing. #punchembroidery #practicemakeperfect #learninganewskill #learninganewcraft #craft #crafting #craftingisfun #embroideryhoop #embroidery #embroideryart #embroiderylove #embroiderywork #punchneedle #oldcraft

My Brioche knitting skills are coming along nicely. This scarf has increases and decreases that form the shaping and help me learn one colour Brioche. Hopefully this should be finished soon 😉. ... ... ... #briocheknitting #learninganewskill #instaknit #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #nilzapereirauk #knitting #lovetoknit #knittingaddict #pinkyarn #pinkscarf #knittedscarf #brioche #learntoknit #knitwear l
