I finished it today! This has been an exploration into the wings and horns ideas presented in Kate McKinnon and Jean Power's new book Contemporary Geometric Beadwork. I'm learning these fun, new techniques because, at this point, I think I would do just about anything to win the heart of Kate McKinnon. Her blog is so inspiring. Really, I was just introduced to her book and blog about a month ago and I feel like I KNOW her. I'm really not a freaky stalker, really, but her writing and thoughts are like comfort food for my soul. I just love her! See for yourselves:

See these little horn thingies on the bottom and top rows? They have so much potential! I'm just beginning to learn how to make them and I can't wait to play with the design, make something just really extraordinary. I'll keep you posted!
In the meantime, you can pre-order your copy of this book too to learn these fabulous techniques!
Love to colors in this rich, tapestry!
