New Stuff

Ok, I've been remiss in sharing pictures of what I've done over the past few months, so here they are.

First off, I just finished this one from the Zulu Inspired Beadwork book that I got at the library the other day:

I'd always wanted to try something with donuts. I'm embarrased to tell you how many donuts I've bought, just because they were cheap, but never knew what to do with them. I LOVE this one, and the swarovski just doesn't sparkle in the photo. Trust me, it's much prettier in person:

A friend had the Beadwork mag with this pattern, so I got to try it:

I loved wearing these Santas around the holidays. They are from a free pattern I found on the net:

I was playing around with rings from an old B&B:

These below were all patterns I was trying out to see if the kids I teach could do them:

I love this ladder and think it would be an easy one for my kids:

I was really proud when I took this one to show my kids, and one looked at it and could tell it was a herringbone variation and could tell me how I did it:

LOL!! I remember, back in the day, when you first started with seed beads and were sooooo apprehensive about working with them. You look pretty comfortable with the tiny beads now. Lovely, lovely work, Jerri. Here's to 2009 being the "beadiest" year yet!

OK, I started a beaded watchband... tee hee. But I'm still trying to get the old bead table cleaned off ... sigh... one of these days.

I wanna see when you're done.

It seems like, a while back, there was a beaded watch and watchband done in either peyote or loomed. I thought it was really cute and wanted to make it since I never wear a watch anyway, I might wear that one. I need to go back through my issues to find it. It was in the reader's gallery of patterns, I think, so I can't find it on the project search.
