Meghan's birthday was Tuesday, which was the same day as my last Tuscarora bead class. So, of course, the mom guilt kicks in. I tell her I won't be staying for the whole class - I "just" have to do the fringe and that shouldn't take long. Um, yeah, that's it. It won't take me long.......famous last words.
I did end up leaving 1/2 hour early, but after 1 1/2 hours, this is how much of the fringe I completed:
I worked another hour on it yesterday and still haven't made it half way around yet. I guess it's a good thing it looks like a Christmas pillow, because I might just be able to have it finished by then.
Rose Mary, our instructor, told us she studied this fringe for like 8 months trying to figure it out. Once she attempted it, it took her a week to get it right. It is complicated! But really fun the way it interconnects. She must have had to explain it to each of us at least 5 times. As Kaye put it "clear as mud." But for those of us that were at the point of putting the fringe on, we all 'got' it as we worked at it.
Some of the women were gracious enough to let me take pictures of their pieces.

Really like the way the crushed velvet looks:
I love to see how everyone's colors come together.
Not sure when Rosie's next class will be locally.
I hope it's soon.
Bead Happy and Often!
