Bead group today and I actually managed to do some beading!

My new cuff is coming along nicely. I've done all of the beading around the Turquoise stones, now I'm working on filling in all the background beads.

I've had so much great feedback from getting my two 1sts and a 2nd place (with three pieces from my Geometric Beadwork Series) - it really has been overwhelming, so thanks to everyone who's emailed me- glad to know you all like the work- and I am busy working away on the instructions so watch this space- though it may be a while!
