I'm sending you a picture of my new
necklace with your bear pattern. The necklace was made with real bone
hairpipe and dyed buffalo horn beads, with sterling silver clasp. The
top pendant was from a pattern by Marilyn Gershman and the bottom
pattern was adapted by my son, Jonathan.

This piece is called "Anamensis" which means "to call to mind". It is
free-form peyote surrounding a piece of seaglass found on the shore near
Halifax, Nova Scotia. The seaglass is held in place with peyote stitch, no
knots are used in the piece. It is difficult to tell, but there are four
shades of green in it. A friend described it as "a delightful tangle of
seaweed", which is definitely appropriate!

My first self designed amulet bag. It is a front and back piece that my daughter wanted. It was the first time I had a design on both sides.

It is done with lime, 22kt gold, white and green Delicas in a pattern I
designed after looking at a picture of daisys in a field. The pattern
is on both sides. There are four green fiber optic beads on the
necklace part. I love making these little purses. Its perfect for that
"emergency quarter" that you were always told you should carry. Because
of its size its even good for a child to wear.

I have not used your Herringbone beading instructions yet but I took one look at the fringe on page 12 and saw earrings. I made a
loop of 3 seed beads, a sterling French ear wire and 3 seed beads, going
through the middle bead of the top 7, using the technique you used with the
bottom 7 beads. I went through it 3 times and then went through all the
outside seed beads again for strength and stability. I've gotten a lot of
compliments on them!

I was fortunate enough to take a
3rd Place Ribbon at the Illinois State Fair for this amulet bag. The
division was Amateur Art and the category was pottery, textiles,
enamels, glass, wood, and jewelry. My husband and I visited the Fair
last weekend and although there were few beaded items submitted, 1st and
2nd were both terrific (both wood carvings). I titled the piece
"Ancestral Reflections".

I'm submitting a bag I made for my daughter. To make it I adapted a pattern from Susie Hughes. Hers was a unicorn, but my daughter is in love with pegasus'.
