Project X

Too soon to have a name, here is the project I'll begin working on this week:

Kind of excited about starting another embroidery piece.  Haven't done a really detailed one since "Plumage" (peacock bracelet); I've been busy gardening, and beaching, and well - doing non-bead STUFF.  And when I did find time to bead -  I've come up with a new 'line' to sell at Coyote - "Cool Chakra Jewels":

This is what I've got done so far, using the semi precious stone that represents each Chakra, and for the rings - simple size 11 seed beads.  I am running low on some of the semi's though, so I'm going to switch to Swarovski crystal for a few things, as well as more seed beads - and I still need to complete some more rings - with and without embellishment.  Not going to do a necklace YET.  I want to wait and see how these are received first.  Should have a fair amount of them (including those pictured) by the time I work my shift on Wednesday.
I'll of course have to stop working on current projects as soon as the Soup ingredients arrive.  Can't wait to find out who I'm paired with!
Now, about that beach......it started out quite fun, but a storm blew in mid afternoon that had everyone scrambling - and scrambling in the sand and up about 10 flights of stairs is not an easy task.  Still....
fun day for the family....

Heading off today to enjoy lunch and some peaceful beading at Sharon's house.  I may try to take some photos of our day together today, as well as of her beautiful pond.  Hard to sit inside at her place too - so much beauty...
Anyway ....peaceful beading to you too....
