Patience is a virtue of which I possess little...except when it comes to designing. Thirty-some years ago when I owned Fibre Ltd., a weaving studio and yarn shop, I thought nothing of unraveling yarn from a half-finished sweater because I didn’t care for the way the design was progressing. I’d start the project over again until I was pleased with it...I chalked up the time spent as not wasted, but as a learning experience. The same scenario holds true for the beadwork I design. I started this geometric bangle two weeks ago, taking process photos and writing instructions for each step confident that my sizing was true. Alas, after getting this far along, I’m once again starting over. I’ll be adjusting the size and pattern design and retaking photos...it’s all in the game!
