breakthrough

These represent a conceptual breakthrough for me. For days everything I made went wrong. I would go through my beads again and again, unable to settle on color and size. I  was able to do some work in right angle weave which was the last stitch I learned. Its easy and hard at the same time.
Working from Diane Fitzgerald's book on dimensional peyoteI finally realized how to make her two dimensional shapes. It turned out to be a lot of fun. I used these rainbow capri blue beads which gave them the look of antiquity. My favorite part is that when you start adding the second layer of beads it looks so pleasing.
