Armistice Sunday

Good Morning.

Not managed to Blog for some time, so have made a special effort for

this post.  I made this Poppy last year,  and feel that it has to appear on my blog today, Armistice Sunday.

Thinking of everyone in the Forces,

 who fought (or still fights) for our country, 

those who made it home to tell the tale, 

and those that weren't so lucky, 

our thoughts are with your family 

whom think of you with a sorry heart but with great pride.

The finished Poppy.  

The top picture does not give the true colour of the silver lined red seed beads, below is more how it looks to the naked eye!

Thanks for Looking and hope to be back soon with more posts this month!

Take care

Thursday Already, where has the week/month gone?

Good Evening all.

 Well, I'm doing not too bad another Blog so soon after yesterday, 

must admit, I have been feeling guilty of not being around lately.

So today's post is Beading, I so enjoy going to the group, it's such a great 

bunch of girls, we have a laugh, and the beading is so relaxing

 well,  once you grasp the pattern.

Good Evening

Thought it has been a while since I

Posted some beading, so here is another finished project that I

made at my local beading group.

I like the above picture, as you can clearly see the square shape

that was made with seed beads - the original pattern was for Tube Beads, but 

this seemed to fray the thread, so we had to adapt the pattern!

Ingredients: 

Pattern:  Hermatie & Firepolish Bracelet from Foxden Designs

 size 11, Seed Beads

size 3mm, Fire Polish 

Beading Thread

Magnetic Clasp

I hope you  like it!
