| Our first piece this week was sent in by Judi Wood. |

I am a full-time artist and bead weaver (off-loom) and I sometimes get to
teach. I had an article published in Bead & Button in Oct. 1998
"Quilts to Earrings" I was also selected for the Beadwork UPClose
competition. I was invited to show my work on TV in New York on the cable
station for Westchester NY. I love what I do not only as my profession but as
a way to calm me whenever I get stressed and need to relax.

Tatanka: 2 gemstone cabochons surrounded by tubular peyote stitch, peyote
ruffles and netting using size 15/o seed beads and delicas. There is no
backing used so you can see the back of the stones when you turn the piece
over. The top cabochon is further embellished with fiber optic heart beads,
Swarovski crystal and misc. glass beads. The necklstrap is a spiral rope chain
using delicas, teardrops and misc. glass beads.

This piece is called Rings of Saturn. The individual niobium rings were
covered with size 15 beads, surface embellished and then stacked on a peyote
core using a series of increases and decreases to create a shelf for each
ring. The rings by themselves are great fun and have many uses. I often make
a few rings of coordinating colors and hang them on a spiral chain.
