ReplyDeleteAlmost makes me wish I did bead weaving....
Almost? Maybe the ribbon and bead work might be right up your street as it takes less time. Not that much bead embroidery!
DeleteDefinitely have to try this. I used google translation site to do the translating since my computer does not seem to work with the chrome browser.
ReplyDeleteGoogle translate is also okay if you don't mind copying and pasting the URL. Have fun!
DeleteHow absolutely beautiful! I'm definitely going to try this. Thanks for the great post Pearl.
