It is now time to put aside the dang election and Heal Myself!
I am about to pack up and go on retreat! I love retreats!
I will be working on:

creating a beaded mosiac frame for this image of Tara.

Above you see some of the supplies I have gathered, two one pound bags of beads in purples and browns, two strands of tear drop glass beads in yellow and brown, two squeeze bottles of thick crafters glue, a bag of rocks for aquariums and a new box to store beads in.
Inspired by Betsy Younguist, I have begun a series of quilt art pieces with beaded mosaic frames. I have not yet put this work on my website, so I am unable to show you what my work looks like.
When looking at the above image and the plywood frame I have built, think mandala-
Nicky Perryman is a new reader of my blog and I am quite impressed by her work. Please check it out.
