“A planet doesn’t explode of itself,” said drily
The Martian astronomer, gazing off into the air —
“That they were able to do it is proof that highly
Intelligent beings must have been living there.”

– John Hall Wheelock

My hubby and I decided back in January that we had reached a turning point in our lives and it was time to jump off another cliff.  We left our home of over 30 years, I quit my job and we moved to a new city about a month ago.  Or rather the quiet little town of Adrian, Michigan. I’m loving it here and since I’m not working at the moment, I’ve had a wee bit more time to do the things I enjoy.

Like this Strawberry Quartz Macrame Choker I started back in the spring.  Yes that’s way too long even for me, but Hey! packing up 30 years of stuff was really time consuming!!!  Anyhoo, I love the soft pretty colors that highlight the large Strawberry Quartz triangle bead.  I used standard weight C-Lon in pale pink, coral, and light turquoise. There are additional sprinkles of Strawberry Quartz, Amazonite, Mother Of Pearl, and rainbow Delicas included.
