Christmas Beading- Or Not

posted: Sunday, 27 December 2009

I'm away from home at the moment so don't have all my stash and supplies with me. I was excitedly beading a lovely snake ring from Sharon Erwine but the reel of thread I bought with me keeps breaking so I've had to abandon that unfortunately.

I did try to struggle on determined to get some beading in but after the thread snapped for the 5th time I realised it was pointless. Not only would I end up spending 4x the time beading the piece but I would never be able to wear it.

I also brought with me some origami and other paper kits but need glue and craft knives for them which of course I didn't bring- typical!
So instead I'm working away on diagrams and instructions for issue 21 of Bead- and itching to get home to my beads!
