Here's another combination beadweaving and bead embroidery project I'm working on. It's gonna take a long time!
I began by putting bezels around the four cabs (they're all dichroic glass). Then I started filling in with embroidery. Not at all sure how this is going to turn out.
When (and if) I ever finish the beading, I'll then back the entire thing with soft leather, put an edge on it -- and decide whether it's a pin, a necklace, or a bracelet. If a necklace or bracelet, I'll have to add a wrist strap or neck rope.
