Swatch, with test-beading, of Jane Sowerby's Victorian Ruby.

Trying to make this pattern work with these beads on this core bead :)

Finally got a better shot of the beading in natural light. This shot shows off the colours of the beads much better.

Carolyn is taking advantage of the nice weather to do some outdoor beading.

latest pictures of the veil i'm making. I'm more than halfway done. I only started on monday with this, so I'm very pleased.

One of the things I'm working on at the moment (28_04_08). The first piece of beading I've done for a while.

The boys each have a "special girl" in their lives that they wanted to make a Christmas gift for, so I let them into my bead stash and they strung bracelets.

I bought some new beads, findings, jewlery rope and storage containers at Wal-Mart last week.

This will be the trim bead on the tender.

This bag is finally finished!! This bag has moved 4 times with me and I started it over ten years ago. Or rather, the bag was done ten years ago and I've been procrastinating finishing the flat peyote stitch strap for over ten years.

Original design by Jennifer Nelson.

Beading

This was a prototype for a dread tube hope_persists commissioned me to make ages ago, and I just now got around to photographing. I think maybe it needs to be larger.

My very first try at beading... toyoka's dress looked so bare, so i decided to glam her up a bit. shes with her new mum now :)

Right Angle Weave

I learned this on the train.

First few rows of the beaded net... wanted to finish the skein before breaking it to get beads on, but it kept going and going and... so I broke it and added beads.

Crystal and Pearl

Anissa had a very very nice dress, gorgeous beading, folds of slightly off white fabric. IT was nice :)
