She asked me, “Could you make this vest in a full swing version?”
And I said, “Yes!”
I pieced the grid and diagonal lines.
Then, I sewed on the beads. And then more beads.
And more beads and more.
In the beginning I thought I’d never finish.
But you know, after a while, well, after a long while, I did!
The back of the vest is in the foreground and in the distance, the front.
Next up: steam flat, sew into a vest and send off to its new home!
Hope we get to see the finished vest, this is stunning! Do you do anything else while sewing on beads – listen to books on tape, music, TV?
Thank You Jane!
While I work I listen to books on tape, NPR, various podcasts and at night, TV. The good thing about television is that I naturally look up and away from my sewing, which you’re supposed to do with any close work. Who would have thought of TV as something that’s good for your eyes!
