Down to Earth Creations: Diane Fitzgerald Triangles
http://downtoearthcreations.blogspot.com/2009/09/diane-fitzgerald-triangles.html
The process of creating jewish and other earthy tribal things. Friday, September 18, 2009. Okay, guys This fall I seem mesmerized by seed bead Stars of David. This will be my third pattern, from a wonderful book by Diane Fitzgerald entitled "Shaped Beadwork." She insists you start with simple 2D shapes, and so I have followed directions to do her first project, a simple triangle. I got ambitious after that and linked them together to make these.

The process of creating jewish and other earthy tribal things. Friday, July 31, 2009. It's been a year, and I've been through surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. My prognosis is good. I've grown my hair back and regained most of my energy. And, minus one boob, look pretty cute if I may say so myself. I want to focus over here on PROCESS, because it's so interesting. Also, when I see all the things my fellow artists have created, I always go WOW, how on earth did she make that? Well I'm not at all like ...

The process of creating jewish and other earthy tribal things. Saturday, August 1, 2009. Darn, I've run out of "Sand and Sea" Mix from Twisted Sistah. So, while I am waiting for Leslie to send me more, here you go with the same idea worked up in my very first seed bead purchase, some tiny (size 15? We'll see when I get to it. This construction is about 2 inches in diameter. Well the first three stars are around 1 inch, when I got it built out a bit it is about 2 inches. How did I get into Beadweaving?

The process of creating jewish and other earthy tribal things. Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Tiny Boxes to Organize Tiny Things. I finally got organized with these little boxes. They fold up really quickly, and I include the template below. I love these cuz I can move them around for different projects, and to put the beads away at the end of the season all I have to do is just tip them into a baggie. This photo is from Etsian saguirl, from a video that's no longer on the site. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Josh and Anna showed us how to make these origami Jewish stars at our Shavuot study a couple weeks ago. They're not hard to make, and very pretty! Cut two equilateral triangles out of paper. Take one of the triangles and fold it in half. Unfold it. Fold it in half another way. Unfold it. Note the center point made by all your fold lines. Fold one diamond in half to make a triangle. Fold one poi...
