Pentecost season piecework stoles

Jo-Ellen is spending her birthday doing piecework. Laurel will join the fun this afternoon.
Off to Portland on Thursday for Celebration IX.

Easter is coming!

We have many different colors of Scanecklaces with various pendants. A gold and crystal cross highlights this thre-yard long scarf/necklace. Cost is $25.

And still more...

But wait, there's more.
