I can still stitch beads on Ultrasuede, though; in this case it's relatively few beads and a handful of Swarovski crystals because I wanted to showcase the blue pietersite cabochon, not my wonderful bead embroidery. I've been fondling this cabochon for a couple of years; it's scary to commit one of my favorite rocks to a piece of beadwork, but after all the Austin Gem and Mineral Show is in just 5 weeks and if I were at all short of pretty rocks (which I'm not) there'd be every chance to restock then.
That's really beautiful Margaret, the beading goes so well with the cabochon. I can see why it is one of your faves, that is a special piece. Sorry you're dealing with depression these days, it sure is hard to do anything when in the midst of that.
ReplyDeleteThis piece is just lovely!!! I refer to your Embeadery book OFTEN and I mean OFTEN! I love that book and I'll be one of the first to purchase your 2nd book! Keep us posted!!!
ReplyDeleteMargaret, it's gorgeous. Soothing for your soul, I hope..
