New Beadwork

This is the bracelet from the latest issue of Bead and Button. It is supposed to have crystals, but for this one I wanted a different look. Used the same technique but modified bead counts for the loops (5 black, 7 copper/6 gold/5 marcasite, 5 black) to make it work.

I call it "Pinstripes" and it is to wear with my new suit for my new job I start Monday.

Locks of Love

I had 10" cut off my hair for locks of love today. Below are before and after photos.

I love my new hair!!!

A note to Christine

The flosses used in Midi I are Needlepoint Inc. Silks, Gloriana Silks and Silk n Color Silks. Everything is silk. I love stitching with silk, and it's really worth it in the long run ;)

Midi I on Mushroom

This is the floss toss for Midi I on Mushroom 32 ct Lugana - and that's what I decided to use :)
