FIBER JUNKIES - NOV. MEETING

On Thursday we had our Fiber Junkies meeting a my house.  Several of our members end up hosting us so often simply because they live at the midpoint between our South Carolina gals and me....who lives the farthest North and West of Asheville.
 So, since they made the trip....I decided to put them through the paces of the even count peyote stitch.....
 These are the samples  I use for the workshop I teach on the subject....which by the way, will be the focus of my Thurs. Feb. 6, 2014 class at the AQS show in Phoenix.
 This technique can be applied to all sorts of projects.....here you see a scissors sheath and an eye glass case.  
 We worked on felted wool and beaded around a flat mirror for the learning process.  At the AQS show students will progress onto beading a stone cabochon as well.
Yeah.......one down......more to go.....  You did good girls!!!!
