To Bead Or Not To Bead...That Is The Question.

It has been a couple of weeks full of ups & downs.  Last week I had burned 2 of my fingers, which had me in (believe it or not) a near panic.  "How am I going to bead, knit or crochet?" was all I could think about.  Believe me, the next day I was determined to find a way; and I did!
Although awkward and uncomfortable, I at least managed beading, and miraculously I didn't mess up my tension.  My index finger is the worst, and now dealing with possible nerve damage.  However I think that will heal over time (I hope!) once it has healed. 
I have been desperately attempting to re-sort, re-organize and inventory my current stock. One thing I will admit; I am a lousy organizer! lol  So much to do, so little time. ;)
I want to share with you what I have planned for the near future, most likely starting in May.
Once a month I will be posting "On The Beading Mat" and/or "On The Needles".  It will be a discussion of my trials, failures, new attempts, patterns, stitches, etc. and my opinions or thoughts.
So here's what you will have to look forward to upon completion.  My first double spiral necklace made with Czech Fire-polished glass beads (providing the pendant I'm designing turns out, lol), a filled netted lariat rope also made with Czech Fire-polished glass beads and a couple of peyote stitched projects, also both firsts for me.  The stitches themselves aren't being done for the first time, just the actual projects.  I look forward to posting some photo's on my Facebook page soon. :)
