Mackenzie working on beading. She made a really cool charm bracelet for herself using some of my earrings that had lost their mates
This is the front side where the beads are picked up using the tiny tambour hook. Working from the wrong side, essentially the beads are strung onto the thread and then you sort of do a chain stitch through the fabris and pick up beads or sequins onto the right side.
This was made as a practice job for tambour beading. I essentially bought myself a cheap shawl that had a bit of a pattern on it, grabbed a handful of random beads and practiced my tambour beading by following around the edge of the pattern.
This was just to practice the skill really and whilst it came out quite pretty, the weight of the glass and metal beads on a thin polyester shawl pulls down a little on the ends for my taste and therefore it sits in a cupboard.
Someday I'm going to learn to appreciate simple, unadorned things that don't take months and months to complete. Probably when I'm dead.
Second beading step: string chain beads. They should be slightly longer than the spine beads, and go through -in this case 3- spine beads. Add one additional spine bead.
this is my first inchie for 2013 and I am glad I got this one done, had to redo it 2x's! I love beads but hate silk beads they are the spoiled brats of the bead world. :P Anyways, here is my lil star.
Pour celui dont je partage la vie depuis plus de 30 ans, brestois, motard, amateur de BD et surtout de Gaston Lagaffe à qui j'ai emprunté 'la mouette rieuse'..
Wearing one of the gorgeous necklaces MIMLs Mum sent me for Christmas. Other one will appear soon too She is very clever!
I had so much fun with this! It's purple with some pink and other colors, with 4 drop beads for fun - I usually only do one or two drop beads if I do any at all.
This is the back part of the dress.... It isn't perfect, not completely symetrical, but i'm glad i'm finally done x w x
esta es la parte trasera del bordado... no es perfecta, pero igual me siento orgullosa del resultado. Es la prueba de la mejora, miren la linea en mostacilla azul por el borde del lado derecho de la foto.... está todo desviado xD pero despues aprendí a coser no tan apretado y ya puedo coser lineas suaves y rectas x3.
As you can see, I had a rather large order for snails last month, all commissioned by Gigiholy. There are ten in all, six msd sized and four pukifee sized, with pearls. They’re designed to be worn as head parts but since they’re magnetic they ‘stick’ to Fairyland’s hands/wrists and each other. Each one was given a special color scheme to match each of her dolls. Such a cute idea. ^__^
