Geometric Patchwork Sculpture IWB 2022!

I am so excited to announce that I am running one of the international projects this year! It is an honour to be the youngest IBW ambassador and to be in charge of my own project. Hopefully, it is something the beading community wants to be a part of and is something that will giveContinue reading “Geometric Patchwork Sculpture IWB 2022!”

Sunflower Wheel

Hey there, I haven’t gotten to do much actual beadwork lately as I have been working on patterns, video tutorials and other bits and pieces that are beadwork related but not the actual thing. It’s the school holidays next week, so I will have more time but less pay. Anyway I did managed to makeContinue reading “Sunflower Wheel”

Pentagon madness

I have been up to a fair bit recently so this post that I was going to write up on Sunday night is happening now instead. If you are in the Seed Beads and more group than you might have seen my request for pattern testers. Well I got some great feed back and workedContinue reading “Pentagon madness”

Rotunda-Drilled Truncated Icosidodecaherdon with Great Rhombicosidodecahedron core.

Well if the name isn’t a mouth full I don’t know what is. Ok there is some variation to the name on the different sites so I went with the most common. Most don’t say what the core is but I added it in just so you know. I’ve been wanting to make this badContinue reading “Rotunda-Drilled Truncated Icosidodecaherdon with Great Rhombicosidodecahedron core.”

Running out of Beads.

I hope everyone had a good easter. I had a family lunch with my aunt, 2 cousins and our house guest. It was good to catch up. I also finished the second cube house, though it dose not have a roof as I got impatient and really as it is a prototype it dose notContinue reading “Running out of Beads.”

Inspired.

Ok, so last week I took some time to make this cool torus link designed by Yana of Geometiles. I finished it yesterday morning and got so caught up packing that I forgot to write my blog post for the week. Woops. Well, this project was a little difficult to make at first because IContinue reading “Inspired.”

April

Well, we are getting through the year rather faster than I would like. And everything seems determined to happen all at once, so I can only hope that getting a new place is one of those things. At any rate I shall be moving this month and I still have a decent chunk of packingContinue reading “April”

Featured Artist!

I received an email today to let me know that I am currently Mackay Creatives Featured artist, which is exciting. Sometimes it can feel like nobody really cares as I work by myself and am still trying to get my art career off the ground, so it is really nice when my work gets acknowledged.Continue reading “Featured Artist!”

Amidst floods, wars and rising prices.

While the world has gone to hell in a handbasket, life keeps going on without pause. I’ve seen a lot of comments saying who cares about the invasion of Ukraine as it has nothing to do with us, which makes me so damn sad. And not just for the lack of empathy it takes toContinue reading “Amidst floods, wars and rising prices.”

Something a little different

Well since the last time I posted last week it kinda feels like the world has gone mad. I mean we are still dealing with a global pandemic, the first one to directly affect every single person in one way or another, and to top it off we are now dealing with another war. TheContinue reading “Something a little different”
