Not Cross Stitch?!?

Still no stitching for this girl, sigh! "The Mother" was in town last weekend and we ran a muck at the cross stitch store and the bead shop!  

Bead Shop? Yes, last Summer my own mother persuaded me to try a new hobby with her and this is the result! I beaded this bracelet for her 50th birthday, and will never complain about beading a cross stitch project again!

Here is the start of the second bracelet, a commission my mother purchased after my aunt saw her bracelet. Hopefully one day I can make one for myself!
