I've been wanted to make a rain necklace out of coloured wooden beads . . .but couldn't find what I wanted, so I bought plain wooden beads and attacked them with sharpie pens.
The colour wash didn't come out quite as I envisaged so once they were stacked by colour on these sticks shoved into corrugated card I did some speed dating and these are the ones that made the grade.
I made three strands and the gave them a bit of a twist, using a stick and circle thingy as a fastener
And I'm rather chuffed with the result!
I'm coming near to the end of the hexi and triangle EPP that I'm making at M-i-L's . .
just these last 31 triangles to be added then it can be backed and quilted
The templates will be glad to call it a day! I only go through the template on the first and last stitch so you can see how often these have been used
I was at Chertsey Museum on Friday: a few ladies had finished their patchwork baskets and brought them for show and tell
And Friday's class was inchies: As usual, a huge variety of gorgeous creativeness - Well done ladies
