Bel Chanson

Life is good right now, but I can't seem to get the words together for an entry. Instead, here are some photos of the Chanson en Crochet I made for Bel for her birthday. I used parts of three different skeins of the delicious yarn Wendy made for me in 2004. I included 2 buttons, sewn back to back, so Bel could choose the one to suit her mood. I'm really happy with how it turned out.






Words soon, really...
