Finishing with Beads

Over on the main Yahoo 360 blog, Madonna mentioned she didn't have much experience with using beads in finishing. I can't say it is hard--I do it all the time, after all!--but it helps to see what is possible.

Let's head over to Summer Truswell's Finishing website and look at some examples of the ornaments she makes from your stitching. Read the descriptions to both see what sorts of finishing you can order from here and see what you can do yourself. Many of the edges have beads incorporated into the trim and they all are lovely.

Great job, Summer!
