beads n stuff

my friend really got me into going to the bead show in seattle. she make amazing jewelry! so i went. and it was incredible! here's a few things i made from going to it. they already got sent out to a couple of lucky recipients... but man, they are tempting me to start wearing earrings. as for you people who want the shoe pattern, i am going to try to post a tutorial on this blog.... but that might take some time to figure out. it really shouldn't since i have a computer savvy husband, but he doesn't come cheap, and his employer pays more than i do.... (just kidding!) also, i am going to do a drawing for a pair of baby shoes on April 16. who wouldn't want something free on that day??? for now, i've got to go get serious with my sewing machine while i can.... i have a 'self-inflicted' deadline in 5 days that i haven't even started! more on that later!
