Got around to using some of all the beads I have around last week, started off with a simple necklace.

Here is a detail of the beading on the Yemeni thobe or darra.

This little person is a lapel pin and is my own original design. She has beaded legs/arms/hair and also beading on her cloth body.

The other "hobby" of mine, my Mini. It doesn't see rain too often, but when it does - this is the effect the sheer weight of polish/wax produces. Slightly OCD you might think!

This is another bag that I had cut out, put fringe on then left undone for a few months. Finally pulled it out and did the beading on it.

I made this pendant in a beding class with Andrea Sapon at the EGA Great Lakes Region Seminar. It was a fun class.
