Wonderful beading!

I started seed beading about 12 years ago. I learned that wonderful daisy stitch! I was hooked. Somewhere along the lien I picked up some wire- well that was all she wrote. 95-99% of my pieces are wire (with a lot of beads of course) LOL. However, every now and then I get an urge to pick up the needles and thread.

This is one of those weeks. The school year is finally over and now free time! A few weeks back someone pointed me over to Bead Mavens here on Blogspot. I love some of the free tuts that they have listed there! The "fast" peyote Tennis bracelet looks so fun! I started it yesterday after the last hours of work! Check out the Bead Maven's page! I'm sure you'll enjoy!

I'll post pictures of the piece when I've finished it!
