Digg-it by Jean Yates

If you were to go to the Simply Beads online website, edited by supergreat Barb Switzer who is an amazing jewelry designer (really good!!! and with a new book out!) --and here is how to get to it:

http://www.freepatterns.com/content/content.html?content_cat_id=360&type_id=N&month=4&year=2009 you would see the pattern above, called "Digg-it" (oooo those crazy beatnik Neanderthals!), by me, as well as a cool design by Margot Potter and one by Candie Cooper, all lovely and all connected by the components and Ice Resin you can get at Susan Lenart Kazmer's and Linda Larsen's mind expanding shop, www.objectsandelements.com/ It is so surprising to discover yourself online unexpectedly.

In the middle there, interspersed with brass bullet shapes, in pale green, is Roman glass. This is a color I love! I was really happy to be able to add to the design by bumping it up with this.

Simply Beads website is so good! You really should remind yourself to check it out on a monthly basis! Who knows what you will dig up??? !!!
