Freeform Peyote Blackbird Bracelet 2
I just realized that I hadn't blogged since Miss Lucy died. That's two weeks on a dead chicken. Not cool. So I have been busy, and I've had a dental emergency, AND, I have finally, finally, learned to do the peyote stitch!!!
Thanks to a wonderfully talented gal, Marty Sewell, who is a bead artist and teacher and a fellow member of my art quilting guild, I am BEADING for real, with not a lot of mistakes!!! She is incredibly patient, and believe me she seriously needed that patience with me. She doesn't teach often, but you should keep and eye out and run don't walk to take a class with her.
Check out some of her work with Ann Severine
And I promise not to wait so long to post again, I actually have some good news and new projects to show you!
You are doing a great job on the beading...just beautiful. I once gave it a shot but didn't last long. But that was several years ago when my children were small and I had no patience, uh, time then.lol
