I can't believe it's been nearly two months since my last post. I've been crocheting a lot and had a booth at the Pecanfest last month. I did really well selling my jewelry and scarves. My sister took what I had left to work with her and sold every one of my scarves! Thanks, Ladies!
My sister has this really neat antique watch fob from the Hamilton Brown Shoe Co. It belonged to her father-in-law and she wanted to put it on a necklace. It has a compass on it. How cool is that?
The back says "Always in the right direction with TWINKIES. Happy shoes for busy feet." Cute!
We went shopping and picked out the supplies to make it. I love shopping with my sister and that we like the same things! We got brass chain, a Vintaj key charm, small Vintaj word charms and a "hook clasp" to hang the "fob". I had already looked and thought that would be a neat way to hang it. She walked over and picked out the same thing!

Here's to a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!

I'm so glad you did well with your scarves and jewellry Jana and you've done it again with that gorgeous necklace. Your sister must be thrilled.
Speaking of scarves I tried to send you an email (it bounced back) regarding the fabulous scarf you made with the button on the side. I was hoping you could let me know where I could get the pattern from. Would love to knit one for my daughter for next winter.
Love that idea!
