Well maybe this will give you the push you need? ;-)

Don't be ashamed. I'm just one of those people that can't sit around with
nothing to work on. I'd go nuts. You wouldn't believe the amount of
unfinished projects I have hanging around...

What are you all working on?

I'm working on a bead embroidered purse. There is no real theme to it,
but it sticks to a color scheme of black and purple (and iris) and has at
least one heart on each panel. Originally I thought that I could get away
with no hand sewing (other than the beading), but now that I've actually
started constructing it I think I'm mistaken. Ah well, it should be
pretty when it's done, if I do it correctly. I've got about half of the
beading done. Here's a Work In Progress pic:
http://www.valeriebeads.com/panel1copy.jpg

I've already got an idea for the next purse/bag, although I haven't yet
thought of the purse shape and construction. ;-) Too bad these things
take so looong to make. I mean, they take about as long as any seed
beaded piece, but lately I just haven't had the concentration to sit long
than a half...oh look at the pretty butterflies...

So lets see your project(s)!

Thanks Shirley! I really am enjoying the bead embroidery. I could possibly
open doors to regular embroidery, but I need another hobby/obsession like I
need another hole in the head. ;-) Although I'm *sure* you don't know what
I'm talking about do you?? wink wink

No idea whatsoever.
Now where did I put that set of new embossing border punches. LOL.

Speaking 0f unfinished projects, I took a class with Stefanie Sersich
last year at Bead & BUtton and never finished the bracelet. When I
was packing for the show last weekend, I found a two strand necklace,
all done except the crimps and clasp. Sigh.

Oh, and what I've been working on:

My first time at herringbone:

And some more maille earrings. These are smaller than they look in the
photo, and boy were they a bear!
