I got started when my little doxie became paraplegic and I needed to switch my interest to something I could do as I sat with her to keep her "safe" as she indicated that everything scared her now. So I switched from doing silver work to beading. She and I were happy then. Two weeks ago I had to give my baby girl up and allow her to cross the Rainbow Bridge. I can't seem to get interested in silver right now, so I am sticking with beading since I spent so much money investing in beads and supplies. I need to advance my beading since I only know the peyote stitch and flat spiral. I have a hard time following written instructions and do much better with pictures. Thanks for considering adding me. I would love to learn more through the bead alongs. Thanks.

What a great teacher you are! I stumbled across your blogspot and found the "Bead Along" project. It's too late for me to join in on this one so I was wondering how many you conduct throughout the year? Hopefully I can join in on your next one. I live in a small town in Lake Havasu City AZ, we do have a bead shop here so if I get stuck on a project I know I can get help. Thanks for all that you do Kelly and the wonderful projects that you share with us. You are a special person.<br />CarlaCarlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04604962267068213185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609507036104290041.post-60663948768553758142013-04-19T07:26:26.433-07:002013-04-19T07:26:26.433-07:00Hi Kelly, thanks for your beautiful tutorials, I l...Hi Kelly, thanks for your beautiful tutorials, I learned with them.

I have made some of your projects and I am satisfied with the results. <br />I would like to partly join the bead along. Partly, because it can be difficult at times for me to get the right needs needed for the projects. Is it possible to just make some of the chosen projects and send you the picture of what I can finish on time?<br />I am living partly in Milan, Italy and partly in Stockholm, Sweden.<br />Thanks<br />Josephine LarezaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16840478878229665122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609507036104290041.post-75654363760167782762013-04-04T10:32:15.135-07:002013-04-04T10:32:15.135-07:00Hello All,

I am saddened by the occasional negative comment you receive, but heartened by the MANY of us who write to tell you what a gifted teacher you are. Your YouTube videos help me tremendously (such as diminishing my intimidation of new stitches). My budget is limited these days, but I happily purchase from you as I can: giving back to those that give freely. THANK YOU and congrats on your family addition - exciting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930173675662001615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609507036104290041.post-77061116105459932952013-04-03T19:26:02.555-07:002013-04-03T19:26:02.555-07:00Hi Everyone!

I moved here about 12 years ago, and had been bored to tears until I started beading. I got into it when my sisterinlaw showed me some things she had made. I started ordering all kinds of beads, but didn't know what to do with them. No imagination here. one day, by accident, I found Kelly on U-Tube, and the rest is history. She has spent so much time with me in my office/craft room, its sickening.<br />I am so excited to do this Bead Along. I am not nearly as advanced as most, but it's fun trying, and learning. <br />So..Good Luck to all, and to Kelly as always..

I came across Bead Along this morning. I would love to join. I enjoy just about anything handmade. I start jewelry making about 10 years ago. I stopped and wanted to start again. I enjoy classroom/group activities. I would enjoy beading along.
