Beaded Bracelet Pearl Bliss - 4/15/23

April 23, 2023--Loved working up this beaded bracelet designed by Beads Gone Wild called Pearl Bliss.  It has lots of texture and I learned more techniques like ladder and herringbone stitches.  These little bracelets are fast and quick to work up while keeping me challenged.  I am falling deep into the rabbit hole and loving every minute.  

The wrinkles you see in the photo of the bracelet laid flat disappear when curved around the wrist.  Nice.

More news about the Stage 2 portion of ANG's Master Needlepointer Certification Program--it's done and mailed to the program chair for review.  Yay!!  Hope to have something to blog about by early Summer.

Beaded Bracelet Peyote Dogwood - 4/1/23

April 1, 2023--I'm hooked on working up beaded bracelets, and this time it's a peyote beaded one with a dogwood button clasp.  I love the YouTube videos produced by Beads Gone Wild, the shop where I purchased the kit for this bracelet.  They give you lots of detailed instructions, much of which can be used in other projects.   

And I'm continuing to work on my ANG Master Needlepointer Certificate Program, Stage 2.  All of the designing, drafting and testing on the last section of this project have been done and I'm happily stitching away.  I actually believe the stitching and report will be completed in plenty of time (deadline for mailing is about April 17th).   I should be able to blog about it once the piece has been "graded", sometime in early Summer.  Stay tuned.
