Beaded Bugs…
When I get the beading bug (pun intended) and do actually pick up needle and thread again, I’m going to play with a few of these designs. This book, by Nicola Tedman with super geometric beading guru, Jean Power, has patterns for stitching moths, butterflies, beetles, and other six-legged creatures. Shown next to the book are several brass bugs I found at Gail Crossman-Moore’s booth at the Bead&Button show. I’m not sure what I will do with them – I’ll just admire them until I come up with an idea!

Even I can’t wait to see what I’ll make, Lois. I just need to carve out the time for experimenting. So many projects and so little time. There are never enough hours in a day!
