So good

[clevermanka]

I'm helping radcliffe do some beading on her gown. I can finish ten pearl squares in fifteen minutes! That probably doesn't mean much to anyone else 'cept me, radcliffe, and solan_t, but I think that's pretty good. I worked on it for two hours this morning, so do the math. Of course, the skirt is so dang huge, you can't tell I've done anything on it so far. But I'm hoping that with some more time this afternoon and tomorrow I can make good progress.

Also, the scale this morning read 166.4! Slowly but surely...

I can identify - I once decided to sew sequins onto a dress I'd made, ala 50's Mexican skirts. Pain in my booty!

Gawd, don't say that! I'm thinking about doing that, too, sometime. Yikes!

Let's just say you need to anticipate being patient - very patient. That's when you pop a favorite movie in the DVD player - one you know well enough to not have to pay 100% attention to the tv, and go to town!

I love to bead or sew sequins on things-as you all know LOL. Whats a pearl square??? 4 pearls in square formation, or a stitch I'm not familiar with????

Nah, it's just a pearl in the center of each of these squares. There's a maltese cross in the center of each square/diamond shape in the fabric and I'm putting a pearl, flanked by two yellow beads, in the center of each cross.

Nothing nearly as exciting as what you're picturing, but it still looks pretty damn spectacular.
