Bring on the Bling

Ruth Schmuff's current mystery class is a canvas with a series of candy-colored trees from Eye Candy. Ruth plus canvases equals lots of beads, sequins and metallics, with a portion of silks on the side.  Here is Ruth's current progress and an explanation of how she beads so fast.  I really should take notes on Ruth's technique.
