You get so engrossed with what you are watching on TV that you make mistakes in the thing you are making ... I was watching "Topic of Cancer" last night and managed to sew the beads on my latest creation on the wrong side !!!
I am currently making a new pair if barefoot sandals. I started out just making some motifs. I have some lovely glass beads that I have been looking for an excuse to use. This is often my design process, just start making something and see where it leads me.
And then decided that I would make barefoot sandals out of them. I have joined the motifs so that they make an S shape and the next stage is to add some rocailles beads around the shape ... this is where I went wrong. Oh well, I guess that its the mistakes and fixing them that makes the end result more special - well thats what I'm telling myself :)
So the task today is to fix the first one and sew the beads onto the second one. More photos to follow, sorry about the quality of the photos here - they are taken with my mobile phone and it works much better as a phone than a camera :)
