Needing some distraction from ongoing ankle fracture issues I did something that has been on my list for years - a silver smithing course. Over an eight and a half hour day we learned to solder sterling links, craft a toggle clasp, the techniques of hammering and embossing, and bezel setting of a CZ. That is my finished project. Accolades to a wonderful teacher, also a blogger.
Photo therapy also helps me forget the pain. Rye at eight months:
Love the bracelet!! Also Rye is really growing - how cute he is!! He can take you mind off your ankle - hope it's better soon!!!!

I'm so sorry that your ankle is still tormenting you! I hope it will soon get well!
Love the bracelet - and Rye! Isn't it amazing that they grow so fast?
Love from Denmark

I would love to have the pattern for the scarf Herringbone Rib, if you are still offering it. Thanks.

The bracelet is lovely, and good for you for learning a new craft. Will there be more jewelry?
Aaaw, what a happy boy!
