Different colour scheme to usual
I fell in love with this banded agate pendant and had to have it! So, I bought mother of pearl, onyx, haematite and freshwater pearls to go with it. I am really pleased with it. I am possibly going to change the bit that the pendant hangs from as I am not 100% satisfied that it is totally secure. I might give square stitch a go to make one!
Another flower - with tighter stitching
I think the colours are delicious - although I need to buy some thread that matches exactly! I only had a pastel yellow that was close but it shows on the top layer. I changed the pattern of the flower a little from the one in the magazine and it went really well. I apparently now know Peyote Stitch!

The second beading day project finished
This is very pretty finished. So much so that I am working on one for my friend's birthday. She likes green, so I have bought some wonderful beads to make it with.

Beading day makes
It was a fab day. I made these two part projects and added a lot more once I got home. The black and white necklace is nearly finished now. The berry work is going to be a bracelet and might be a birthday present for a friend, depending on how it turns out!

Some more cards...
I would really love some feedback on the house card. I drew it myself and can't decide if it is good enough to give to someone. Is it obvious that the smoke makes a heart? I am probably going to colour in key things like the front doors, and do something to the white space at the top and bottom.

And another commission
My mum asked me to make a bracelet for her best friend. The friend apparently likes 'bile' green (you know, that light pea green summery colour!) and mum wanted a bracelet in that colour. I said that all that colour might be a bit over ther top, and she agreed, so I have added in some colours that blend.
Aah...these are more like it!
