Finally got round to some crafting this weekend. Thought I'd lost the will to craft...but it has returned. It's been about 14 months since I quit smoking and took up the evil Knititng Nancy - another highly addictive way to pass the time. I've made more button brooches and a new kind...made up of different buttons (I think I like them better). I'm a big fan of Button Therapy, so spending time immersed in their colours, shapes and textures kept me happy.

Cool brooches. You have good craft mojo.
ooh the new brooches are lovely...
Very cute indeed. I'm also a Button Therapy devotee.
Yay for button therapy. Craft as therapy is a subject very dear to my heart! ;) The brooches look fantastic, Fran!
Lovely lovely! What is it about buttons? I have a huge jar in my kitchen and a bowl in my bathroom full of buttons and they make me smile! ODD!
Great brooches
I will think up some 'imadeitmyself' paople for you.
there are a few bag ladies at my shop... hahhaha... they make bags :D but as soon as I get in the entries for morphe II I will pass over some cool aussie makers & shakers
I loved my Knitting Nancy! Oh, the memories... I will have to go on a dig through the archives of my childhood and see if I can find my Nancy too.
take care, gracia
I had a Knitting Nancy too! Never could figure what to do with all that knitted rope though!! LOL
Button therapy - hey that sounds much more satisfying and not so ouchy on the hip pocket as retail therapy :D
ooh I like those!
Beautiful! I'm glad to hear you've given up smoking for something much, much sweeter. ;)
