What beading stitches have you tried? Please don’t give up on it. I can see some beaded beads woven into one of your chain maille bracelets.

Decide which of the posted pieces you like the best and we will work on teaching you that stitch first. Other stitches can be learned during future trips down. Even if I never blogged once, Jah was going to guide our footsteps to a mutual path. Our friendship was meant to be! Glad you liked the amulet bag, even with all it's shortcomings.<BR/><BR/>Sistren D,<BR/>You are so fortunate to be the heir to a creative legacy from your beloved GrandFather. I am always blown away by how many different crafts you have mastered! <BR/><BR/>BetteJo,<BR/>I started buying beading books and patterns in 1994. Spent almost two years reading before I picked up my first beading needle. I'm a slow learner, but once I've got it...it's mine for life!<BR/><BR/>Bless Up,<BR/>Lady RootsLADY ROOTShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02024725715605137298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867050264435558010.post-70984562756869990152009-03-01T12:06:00.000-05:002009-03-01T12:06:00.000-05:00I can see how that could be very frustrating to le...I can see how that could be very frustrating to learn.

Gives me hope that I might some day actually figure out how to do what you do. plus you might not have ended up doing this blog making it less likely for us to have "met". :-) Off center or not I still like this piece too. I think it's lovely.Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16125112658205410916noreply@blogger.com
