I've been working on my Beaded Beads for the Beaddreamz exchange.

This is the side view of an adaptation of a pattern from the magazine Beaders Handbook

Top view shows a five pointed star.

This is a dodecahedron......a 12 sided sphere, each side has a star design and is made individually then zipped together to form a self supporting bead.

This one is a peyote stitched strip added to a miniature thread spool painted black. I have another one of these finished too.

These are called Sparkly Wheels and are from the book The Art of Beaded Beads. They are really easy to do and are really nice looking too.

It has been very hectic at work, so I haven't had much time to work on beading, knitting or quilting lately. Things should slow down towards the end of the month and I will have some extra time to work on projects and maybe even have time to post more often.
