| Our first entry this week was sent in by Caroline Bleil. | |
 |
This one is my first original [dutch spiral] effort , and turned out much nicer than I expected it would. I used a bloodstone cab and 4 different size 11 seed beads in colors that I found within the stone, some nearly imperceptible. The accent beads are bronze teardrops that are placed on every other row. It was a hit with the members of my bead club, and they've asked me to teach it to them. (41k) |

This piece is called collared elegance. It is a very supple freeform peyote stitch collar. I used lots of folds in the peyote fabric to create textural interest. My bead partner, Linda and myself (Marcia) of MarLin Beads co-design a lot of the pieces that we teach. (16k) |
| These two entries were sent in by Glenda Stubblefield AKA "Snoop". | |
 |
The first one is a 'forget me not' necklace. The pieces started out to be earrings, instead I thought would make a nice necklace. The forget-me-not is the Alaska state flower. (19k) |
 |
The 'Horse Head' barrett, I made for my daughter. It is bead embroidery. I got the pattern out of the'Beads to Buckskins' books. (36k) |
| This entry came from Laurie Hausmann. | |
 |
This is a show bridle that I beaded for my horse, Skeeter. It is done in tubular peyote stitch. It was the first major project that I attempted after I'd been beading only about 3 months. It's gotten a lot of attention! (36k) |
