Turtle and Bumblebee Pins

Visit my web site at http://mysite.verizon.net/designsbyidele to view my beaded miniature bears and other animals.

I have completed my bead embroidered turtle pin. I have also designed a three dimensional bead embroidered bumblebee pin. They are now posted on my web site. I have also added my stone bracelet, bird pin, and nametag necklaces. I designed the nametag necklaces to wear at my meetings for the Embroiderers' Guild and American Needlpoint Guild.

I am continuing to explore the creative possibilities of bead embroidery. My current project is a fully jointed beaded bear pincushion. Each bead embroidered piece has its own challenges, but I enjoy finding the solutions.

I am continuing to work on my bead embroidered figural designs. My current project is a turtle pin. I have completed my seahorse etui box which can now be seen on my web site along with several other of my designs. I have updated and redesigned my web site which is now organized by category.




I designed the Seaside Sampler for the ANG Needle Artists By The Sea group for their 2009 yearlong project.
