Oh my but it is still very hot out here...the last few days have been 109 and today is already getting there. Glad I do not have any outside things to do. Well I do but they are not getting done now. I am practicing my patience and waiting.... for the most part it is working. There will be last minute cleaning on the lanai before Tuesday.
I was asked about making the beaded stars... yes, the beads are tiny...very tiny and can be costly so I try very hard not to loose then on the carpet. Really need to put in wood flooring in the house.
When working with just 2 colors I just lay out the sections and work it that way. When working a pattern, I take a different approach. I lay out strips of felt on my bead tray and then sort each row out in order and then bead. The pictures shows a one row plan.
I have 2 sections of 5 complete and just started the 3rd one. These are in position to zip (sew) together. I love the colors combination.
My next one; yes thinking of the next one already, will be a yellow combination. The black back round is for effect....it is a stain-glass look. This almost looks like a butterfly and there is a pattern for a butterfly...just have to remember where and who.
The car needs gas, I am at the 3 line rule. I know... but I am much better now at going to the gas station. I am just holding off so that when I go on Wednesday to the dealership I will not be bringing it in with a full tank. The Brother Alan will be talking with them about a new lease. I will have him put about $10.00 in when he arrives on Tuesday. That's right my friends, they arrive Tuesday late morning. Arrangements have been made with the shuttle company to pick them up from the airport and bring them home. I doubt this trip will have a delay return as there will be not snow storms to cancel flights.....maybe a hurricane!?
That is about it and the beading is calling to me.... glad we had time to chat. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. Thank you for your friendship.

The latest beading does look like a butterfly; what pretty colors. Although we are cooler than the Valley here, it still reached 91 degrees yesterday. Ugh. I am seeing cooler temps coming up the end of the new week so hurray for that. Yay for Brother Alan and Lisa's arrival soon. It's always nice to have company. Hope these few days go by fast for you!

I was thinking how the new beading looked like a butterfly and then further along you had written it.
