[Northkeep] beads on sale, and wordfame!

[beth at stormreaver.net]

Right now, Hobby Lobby is having a 50% off sale on ALL their beads. They
have a pretty nice 'store brand' and also carry Blue Moon beads, which are
extra nice. They have a fairly good selection of very period looking glass
beads in a variety of colors and sizes.

The sale ends Saturday. Just wanted to give folks a heads up.  I got eight
tubes of beads for a whopping $4.50.  :-)

Also... some word-fame for Olivia and er... Devon's mom, whose name I
cannot remember :-(  ... who finished their beaded/belled/coined pieces and
brought them to fighter practice last night! They were lovely!  Good work,
ladies.  I still have extra handouts if anyone wants the directions on
making the lacework beaded thingies. The pattern can easily be revised for
use as edging on veils, on bits of linen to cover goblets, as anklets or
bracelets or necklaces...  http://www.stormreaver.net/sca/beadwork.htm -
the green beaded piece was made using this same pattern, just bigger sized.
It's a very versatile beading pattern.  I'll see if I can't hunt up more
patterns to share for next week.
