New Bead Embroidery Book!

Hi... Great news!!!

My new book is finished and off to the printer!!!!! The title is

Heart to Hands Bead Embroidery
Fresh Ideas and Techniques for Creating Art with Beads

I'll post a link to more information and ordering on my
blog and website in a few days (after I receive a confirmed delivery date). The book should be available to you in about a month!!!!
This book was the longest pregnancy (4 years) and the most difficult labor of any so far. But it was worth all the effort as it's absolutely gorgeous. I'm so thrilled with all the pictures and everything about it. (Goodness, it's not even my first child... how could I be so excited?!)

Just had to share... Now I'm catching up on everything, starting with bookkeeping and taxes for 2007. Yikes... that will be a big job. As a reward for each boring bookkeeping task, I'm going give myself a little time to visit your recent blog posts and post my own February BJP. Yeah!

Greetings Robin, from a fellow islander ~

Since you are my "Bead Guru" and I only embarked upon improvisational bead embroidery BECAUSE of you -- and the spirit of your work -- thru your website, your blog, and then, your books, and then YOU -- I am excited to bits that you've completed yet another book... I look forward to devouring it!

Oh, and I must reiterate, it is TOTALLY YOUR FAULT that I am now addicted to 15/0's.... I guess there are many more things worse to be smitten with, yes?

All best and "Thank You" for sharing all you know,

Christi, WA state
