Hello!
In just a couple of weeks the ground has gone from dingy and still snowy in some areas to bits of green showing. The weather is too warm for me to want to stay in and bead. Time for me to set up a folding tray outside and enjoy the sun. I love this time of the year, as the days start going into the nights and Alaska becomes truly "The Land of the Midnight Sun".

Here's the latest article from the Beadwork site at BellaOnline.com.
