Something different, for us last night, but useful to know how - you never know when it might come in handy!
One of our group members makes jewellery and she agreed to show us all how. So armed with what must have been thousands of beads in all shapes, sizes and colours, a couple of sets of pliers and some samples for inspiration, we set to.
Here are our efforts, a selection of earrings and memory wire bracelets.
Next month, we'll returning our thoughts to Christmas decorations.
The idea of today's workshop was to make a dent in our scrap bags by using till rolls to foundation piece long strips ready to use for piecing, borders etc at a later date.
Certainly, everyone got the hang of the technique and drawing a selection of patterns, piecing several strips to use or keep as a reference for the future. Not so sure that it made a big dent in the scrap bags though!!!!!
A few photos (not to scale) from Wednesday's show-& tell - lovely work.
And these are using fabrics created on our recent 'dabble day'.
