Whirrrrrrrrs and Twirlz

Though it is many days past since the new year began I do not consider it is too late to put a cheerful New Year wish for everyone visiting my blog.  I wish you all the very best for this year. It was never my intention to delay the first post of the year. No excuses, but  I had been having some problem with my laptop, lots of awful whirring sounds while booting and also while using the internet. My biggest scare was that  the hard disk was possibly going to crash attributed to its overuse.  To protect my data I took regular backups on a USB drive and also on DVDs. Finally, I had the courage to take it to the service center to be rectified.  It was a great relief  when it was diagnosed as a fan problem. The poor fan was being overused, as I worked and surfed in this Indian heat.  I was relieved to hear that my hard disk was fine with no bad sectors. The fan's been replaced and the laptop has become quiet again.

I had time to design a new pair of earring which I have named Twirlz. It is a simple pattern  tatted using size 20 thread and embellished with turquoise Miyuki delicia beads.

After adding lever back earring findings the earrings look like this.

This is all for now but there is lots more to come.
