Kathleen's beadwork

She learned this beading technique from a teacher who learned it from an ancient tribe of indians in Mexico. This tribe was left relatively undisturbed by the Spaniards because they negotiated with the Spaniards; if they would leave the tribe alone, the tribe would supply the Spanish troops with food, and so they worked out a deal. Smart people. Kathleen says this necklace would be like a very simple child's necklace to these people. :)
