Day 15 of my 2022 Christmas Countdown and it's my Beaded Angels.
This ornament is very special to me because it was tricky to make. I went to classes at Nancy's Stitch Studio and learnt how to do beading. The beads are threaded together with very fine Nymo thread which is extra strong nylon thread. The way they nest in to each other is called Peyote stitch - frequently used by North American Indians.
To make this ornament we made the same angel six times, and then did some fancy magic stuff at the top to join them all together.
Can you believe I was so happy when this was finished that I bought a second kit to make another set? It's sitting upstairs barely started and I don't know if I can remember how to do it now. Maybe I'll dig it out in 2023 - my year of finishing things. (Where's the laughing emoji when you need it.)
