I skipped BAM last week because of the anniversary bead along, but I don't want to wait too long. Some of you new people might be shy about posting your work, but we love seeing what everyone is doing, and I encourage you to post it. The feedback you get will motivate you to keep going. I am in week five of my carousel box. I have finished the bottom and am working on the top.

The White Pantsuit Project. I was fascinated by the posters from the Women’s March 2017 and 2018. This project started as a way to deal with the political climate of that time. It became a piece of thankfulness. It celebrates women and women leaders from the start of the Civil War to Suffrage, Women’s Liberation, today and the future. The piece is made up of Peyote bead weaving, lampworked and flat glass. It was my sanity.

In an effort to get to know each other, post where you live and something about it. I will pick a random winner on tomorrow's call from the people who posted and they will receive VIP status. I currently live in southeast Alabama in a small town of 4,000 people. It's mostly farm land with corn, cotton and peanuts. Plus a large helicopter base. I love the peace and serenity of living in the country.

How long have you been beading? I’ve been beading 9 years. I was inspired by Pinterest. I have always been crafty but never thought I could make jewelry. HAHA! Look at me now! 🤣💕

I’m in the hotel and sickness sucks especially when you’re congested. It’s always seems when you go somewhere you want to be something tries to ruin it.
