2:59
so it doesn't look so creepy that i'm looking
3:06
excuse me there we go we don't care sun here in central pa so i love
3:13
yes we're glad for that we're definitely glad for the sun so if you haven't seen yet this is our
3:19
project for tonight lacey lacey nicey
3:24
so i made it as an anklet but you can certainly do it as a bracelet or it would be a
3:32
really pretty choker too beautiful yeah i think patty said she's gonna do that yeah and then i have a wooden button
3:39
just with a pretty design on it but um jules has lots of lots of and she has
3:45
plain ones so you can put a pretty design on but for today i'm going to use this one
3:51
but yeah so i'll show you what materials we need for tonight
3:57
so spotlight you babe how about that oh yes please
4:02
there we go so we have eight o's two colors of edo's
4:08
and then two colors of eleven o's is what you're gonna need and a fun bead board
4:14
i think last i heard there was three more left for this month's uh
4:20
creative soul box and this comes with it so i love that little board oh my goodness it's perfect size
4:27
i know so cute uh you'll need some hemp now somebody from another country was asking
4:33
what other kind of material i would say anything that you feel is strong enough and holds
4:39
together um maybe waxed linen um [Music]
4:45
i'm trying to think what about like s lawn or cedar oh yeah start thank you i couldn't pull those words
4:52
that's okay so you want a heavier kind of thread you know if you want to do it with the
4:59
wildfire by all means you could i i just i i i felt like it felt beachier and
5:07
just kind of you know gave it a a beachy summery vibe by doing this but
5:14
you can certainly do it with the beading thread too um
5:20
a pair of pliers to help put your thread on your needle and a pair of cutters
5:27
and a loom so not too much is needed tonight i know some people already got
5:33
their their supplies and so hopefully
5:38
if you're new tonight i will go over warping this is our small wisdom wire
5:45
it is the same size as the original jewel looms you could definitely do it on either of those looms you you could
5:52
do it on the large wisdom warrior too um
5:57
so to do an anklet you'll need um i used a sewing measuring tape so you'll
6:05
need to measure your ankle and then you're gonna take one inch off of that
6:12
so like i have a nine inch ankle i'm gonna bead for eight inches
6:18
um and then that leaves same as bracelets leaves that room for the button or however else you choose to
6:26
close it you can choose to close it in different ways i just like the way the button looks for for the anklet i don't
6:33
know it's going for that summery yeah i think you nailed it
6:38
but i am going to use blue in the original yes i used white but i'm going
6:45
to use blue so you can i hopefully that'll pop a little more for you guys to see
6:50
white kind of is hard to see online um
6:55
so it is only three beads wide so we're gonna
7:01
make a base first very simple base that's three beads wide the pattern is
7:08
two rows of a solid color and then two rows that has two solid
7:15
color and then your accent color in the middle so the one i used i it doesn't come out
7:22
online how pretty this bead is but it is um
7:27
the transparent rainbow black diamond it's like this gray shimmery
7:34
uh toho that that jules has and when you look at it in person it kind of has like
7:40
because of the a b on it it has this shimmer to it so it's got like a jewel-ish tone to it so i really liked
7:48
almost felt like diamonds obviously not diamonds but it was it was fun
7:54
so you're gonna take your loom and whether you have the original or the
8:00
small wisdom warrior you're gonna take and you're gonna tie a knot
8:08
oops hit my light there
8:14
see we've got some new friends if you want to say hi so let's see let's scroll up
8:22
and see who joined us here i think i saw yes i did
8:28
kelly came in rosalinda debbie nicole
8:33
joanne is here hi everyone let's see further down vicky i said did
8:39
i say mickey already no i don't know i think he's here robin
8:45
wow lots of friends um deborah
8:51
jones [Laughter]
8:57
becky oh robin got her bot her beads today awesome very cool very cool
9:04
so i'm just linda says that was her favorite seed bead color i really love it too i'm surprised i
9:10
hadn't used it yet but um so i have this the thinner hemp so this
9:17
is 0.5 so yeah so just you could do it with the thicker i just thought it made it more
9:24
delicate doing it with the thinner so you're gonna lay it in a groove up
9:31
top and then come all the way down and try your best
9:37
to eye it in to the right groove on the bottom and then with
9:43
the small wisdom wire i hold it right here to hold the tension and i
9:49
actually i wrapped twice and i have some old stuff on there excuse me
9:56
it happens yes come on all right we'll wrap twice
10:01
and that helps hold the tension since we don't have the bar like the original and i'm only gonna
10:07
skip one okay then we're gonna wake make our way back up to the top
10:16
skip skip one hold it there and wrap twice
10:22
and back around so if we have three that means we're gonna do four warps
10:27
skip one laid in the groove come to the bottom
10:33
wrap twice skip one and of course
10:40
my hemp would get knotted right there [Laughter] that's how it always is right it's like
10:46
it plans to do that i don't know that experience myself them with wildfire too
10:52
and then wrap twice and i hold it when i need my
10:58
cutters gonna trim it
11:04
get my extra hemp out of the way
11:10
and then i'm holding it down here so that i can slide it underneath
11:18
and tight tie it off so i slide it underneath create that loop while i'm holding everything
11:27
and then pull it tight and repeat the thing that's really nice about the
11:33
0.5 is it falls into the grooves nicely you get the larger hemp
11:40
or larger thread it may not sit as nice in the grooves but you can definitely
11:45
push it down that it holds it
11:50
so when you get your wildfire you're gonna do about if you're if
11:57
you've loomed before go ahead and do like two wingspans if
12:02
you're new to looming do about one to one and a half okay uh doing the two gives us enough to do
12:09
the lace up the side but if you're new to beading it's a lot of thread to be trying to handle so
12:22
bonnie is in hi bonnie of course miss sack is here we're always
12:28
happy to see her and melanie says forgot it was thursday and then saw the text my bad oh good oh good
12:36
she said thank you for the text so thank you joan for sending oh yeah we do appreciate you i'm so glad you saw that
12:44
that's awesome all right so you're gonna take one end of your wildfire now make sure you need
12:50
enough up here um to either do your button or to do your button uh
12:57
hole so we're gonna start somewhere around here so the the one thing i've noticed
13:03
with the small wisdom wire and the large wisdom warriors is you don't have as much extra waste
13:10
so you need to move down a little bit more but you know if you have a larger ankle make sure you measure out and make
13:17
sure you have enough room for how much you move down if not you could do this on definitely
13:23
do this on the large wisdom warrior and have plenty of room
13:29
but you have to move down a little bit on the small wisdom warrior compared to the original just so you have enough
13:36
extra leftovers it's just a shorter distance from the
13:41
knob and for our new friends and old friends uh
13:48
just taking your pliers and squishing down the very tip
13:54
of the wildfire makes it easier to thread on your beautiful jewelry needle which for me was sticking out right
14:01
there hanging out on my little piece of cork waiting for me i love that
14:07
when i first opened my box i thought something was wrong yeah i did what happened
14:12
to you and then it dawned on me took me a moment
14:18
so our pattern tonight as i showed you earlier is
14:23
a total of four rows so two rows of your solid color and then
14:29
two rows with your accent color in the middle okay and that's what our pattern
14:35
is pretty straightforward um so i'm gonna pick up
14:41
first time using my board yay now pick up my three seed beads
14:48
make sure you go underneath your warps
14:53
and slide your beads all the way down now i like to start at the top of my loom but i know that trish likes to
15:00
start at her bottom of her loom and either way is fine um
15:06
it just looks a little different when you're so you go underneath first
15:11
and then you go over the top through all the beads and make sure i always look
15:17
to make sure i can see my needle in between
15:22
the beads i don't know if we can get that to focus there there we go well
15:29
so that's a good way of knowing whether you've made it through and having a different color hemp always helps when i did it
15:36
with the white hemp i'm like inside so okay so you can see it really
15:42
well um jones says i cheat and use the beadalon big eye needle for looming more
15:49
than half the time lol sabrina says hello and vicki say is says
15:55
i eyeballed it if it's too short for my ankle it'll be a bracelet if it's too long it'll be a choker
16:01
oh there you go great idea so i picked up three more of my solid white color
16:09
and irina says what am i doing wrong i'm trying to place an order but it will not work oh
16:15
hey senjul is a text yes she'll be able to help you walk through that that's a great idea
16:23
ah did you use one of our links maybe our links are broken does joan need to send you a new link
16:30
you could try through a new link i don't know does anybody else try and have trouble
16:37
it's fun
16:42
all right so now we're gonna add in our accent color i'm gonna pick up one solid white
16:50
my really pretty gray sparkly and another white
16:58
i'm just sliding it down so since it takes a little bit since i
17:03
picked up two wingspans if you don't know what i mean i hold my arms out completely and
17:10
take make the thread as long as my arms would be one wing span and two would be
17:15
doing that twice but if you're new to this maybe just doing one or one and a half
17:23
would be good so you don't get all the tangles and
17:28
it's real easy you just add in the same way just tie off the new piece
17:34
and add it in as if it was the original
17:41
so i'm picking up one white one gray and one white
17:51
hi elizabeth welcome in i'm glad you were able to get in
18:03
and then so under the warp lay in the beads go and then go over top
18:10
of the work and go back through the beads same as as we do each week
18:17
basic basic weaving here so i'll do a couple more and we'll move
18:22
on to the lacy goodness since that's really the newer stuff
18:29
unless we have new people and i can repeat a couple more times not a problem just let us know
18:35
oh it's lizzy okay hi this lizzy
18:42
so i picked up three i'm going under the warps pushing the beads up through
18:48
and then going over top of the warps with my needle and making sure i see my needle
18:54
and then pulling through i often beat on my couch on my lap
19:00
so it's different to beat at a tip you do too yup
19:06
i like to have it at an angle i angle it up but that doesn't work to teach you guys
19:12
no no it works for my vision though
19:17
so as zach says the gray aurora borealis beads remind me of kind of like
19:23
labradorite yes yes so
19:28
oh and melanie's using her board right now awesome they are lovely
19:36
lab dora is very pretty yes yes so you could just tell everybody it's
19:41
labradorite right [Laughter] not quite but we're all fancy it's
19:46
laboratory color there we go
19:52
all right now i'm going back to the pattern one white one accent
19:57
and another solid so really whatever color this real simple pattern so
20:04
whatever colors i have my light right here and my
20:10
microphone so i don't have a lot of mention yeah i hear you girl you have all the arm
20:17
movement i normally do
20:22
but yeah yes elizabeth or lizzy excuse me sorry
20:28
um she is using a does on the base you're gonna need two types of vados and two types of the lemon o's for this
20:35
project two colors so i'll show the project again for those who came in a little late so the
20:41
base is eight o's and then the lacy part is lebano's and i'm doing it with hemp but if any
20:48
kind of stiff kind of beading thread you want to use for your warps works and you could use
20:55
the wildfire too um all of that works it's just a four row pattern
21:04
um two rows of the solid color and then two rows with your accent color in the
21:09
middle so we did warped four and we have three beads
21:15
going across for all our new friends
21:28
and then go on nut so it went under the warps and now over the warps and that had a big
21:34
profile waffle
21:39
does anybody need me to do another row or do we feel good with the
21:44
base i don't know how many new people we have or hi carmen it looks like carmen's just
21:50
joining us hey hi carmen does anybody need me to do another
21:56
base row i certainly am welcome to but i want to make sure i get to the lace
22:02
well i can bring it back up if we need so i bring over
22:09
woo get that out of the way wow look at that that was so quick you were on it
22:16
wayne says okay to move on great all right now you can certainly
22:22
um for the lace part use your jewel loom needle you can certainly
22:27
do that my preference personally is to switch to a a beading needle
22:34
so it's just slightly shorter and they're they're
22:39
made for beating um yeah so up to you you could do either this is
22:45
just my my preference so so i finished off this one over here on
22:54
the right and i'm just gonna do my lace up this side so i'm gonna go back
23:00
underneath all the warps so don't pull my thread out and just
23:06
start so um
23:12
so what you have to do though is i have to get myself up to this bead
23:18
so right now i'm still at the bottom and i'm gonna work my way back up to
23:24
this row to start my loops that way
23:30
i start with the smaller loop and go bigger and then that helps me get back
23:35
to the place i want to go for the next round
23:41
so now since since we're done weaving the beads except for that bottom one it
23:47
doesn't matter if you're on top or bottom
23:52
so for this first one now if i can remember i have to look what should i do the
23:59
first little loop so it's going to be the first one is going to be teeny tiny i
24:04
don't know there we go it's just the first one is just
24:10
three beads the second one is seven
24:15
and then the last one is eleven so we're doing three
24:20
seven and eleven that's what i found helped it to lay nicely okay
24:26
so we're gonna go so you'll see how we weave back and forth to make this happen
24:33
so i'm gonna pick up now we're moving on to the edo's so this part uh not edo sorry levanos so
24:40
i'm gonna pick up one of our aurora borealis i think somebody called them
24:45
graves or labradorite pick up one of my like
24:50
light blue and then another one of our grays
24:56
i like the other names better so
25:02
so i'm coming out of the third row
25:08
so the first row with our accent bead and i'm go i picked up my three
25:14
beads for our first loop and i'm going to go in the next
25:20
row with our accent
25:26
and i'm go i one of you can go all the way through because they're eight o's so and it's
25:31
only three beads so it's not a big deal to go back and forth at this point so then we
25:37
have our first our first loop there
25:43
i can get it very cute okay now
25:48
yeah so now i'm over here coming out of our second accent row
25:54
i'm going to go into the next first solid row
26:00
and come back out
26:06
and now we're going to pick up seven still only one blue accent so
26:16
one i think i put too many in my tray
26:23
wayne says it looks like you used an 8-0 on the other anklet no 8 is the base and 11's
26:31
those are 11's yeah they pop though they do look bigger
26:37
so i picked up three of our gray and i'm gonna pick up
26:44
one blue so that gives us our seven and then three more gray
26:52
um debbie she's using eights for the base and elevens for the loops correct
27:04
so now i'm gonna go over top of my first loop and back down to the bottom
27:14
so we picked up seven so three and three gray and a blue and
27:20
seven i found with the 11 0's goes over nicely over top of itself
27:27
so we've got our first two loops there and now we're set right in the right
27:33
place for our next one go to the bottom one again
27:39
weave back out to the same side and now we're gonna pick up eleven
27:44
so five gray one side a blue and then five gray the
27:49
other side and doing this without my magnifiers
27:55
takes a little more effort so vicky here i'll put this question up for you
28:03
she is asking being and don't have the magic of the internet can you do the loops at the end of each section
28:12
i'm not sure what like as at the end of each one of your edo sections is that what you mean vicky
28:21
as you're putting your edo's on you could just pop your lemons in you could do that but what you'll see
28:27
will happen is that um with the pattern i had chosen
28:35
i got caught on my bracelet here there we go um
28:41
it doesn't it fits the pattern nicely but then you'll have to remember in
28:47
order to keep doing that this middle one like every other one is this is just a
28:54
five so we have the three loops and then we have a single loop the three loops
29:00
single loop so you i mean you could certainly do that i like doing it separate it reinforces the bracelet and
29:07
then i don't have to think about as much either but you could certainly
29:12
do that all right so let's see got my blue i got
29:19
five more gray to go
29:26
woohoo three that time
29:34
all right so now you're gonna go in the second
29:40
solid white of the next grouping
29:47
so it kind of comes that the pattern is this grouping
29:52
and then this grouping then back to the bigger grouping and a little grouping you'll see as we work
29:58
along and then the 11 sits nicely over top
30:06
of the other ones
30:12
and you see my threads now coming out up here so i'm going to go back down through the
30:18
the next grouping with our accent bead and i'm just gonna
30:24
do i'm gonna pick up the five
30:33
so pick up five i pick up two gray a blue
30:40
and then two more of the gray
30:47
and then just go into the next one
30:58
so now very pretty so now we need to weave back up to get
31:04
back to the middle up here so going through
31:09
the two solid
31:21
and back through the first this first uh grouping with your accent bead
31:29
so as you can see we're coming out here
31:35
and now we're going to pick up our three again so starting our pattern over
31:48
she said well vicky says well i'm trying to do this along with you and not quite as fast as you are
31:54
i want to do a lace section with you oh so she could probably yeah
32:05
just work it by the sections definitely now you get a feel for it yeah so now
32:12
we're gonna pick up our seven
32:23
picking up three our blue is not two blues one blue four
32:29
and three more grey
32:41
and we go around our three and down through the solid row
32:51
then we've got the two and we need to do one more with the 11s
32:56
you're watching me on the big screen tv oh boy
33:03
that's what i do to trish when i'm not on with her
33:08
oh good to know good well then i pull you up on my devices to leave messages so yes
33:16
well she says she likes to re-watch them on youtube after you've
33:21
had them live so she can stop in between nice that's awesome that's the best way i
33:27
mean of course being live is the best way but of course learn afterwards that's the best way yes
33:35
so i pick up five grays and a blue my pretty bead board right now this
33:42
board is only available if you get the creative sole kit
33:48
and workshop believe it will be available with
33:53
something in the future do you remember or yes can a good person if she remembers
34:02
i don't um joan might know i don't know if she recalls but um
34:08
she's usually better at that stuff than we are but i'm not sure off the top of my head
34:15
that's fine something else i wanted to mention tonight and i can't even remember what
34:20
it is all right so i picked up 11. so two groupings of five gray and a blue
34:27
and i'm going from this white all the way down here over to this white all the way over here
34:34
going around my other two loops and getting caught on myself again
34:41
the dingle dangles on my bracelet got caught okay so um of course joan comes through
34:47
for us again yeah you will also be able to get it with the small whistle here so
34:53
yeah that'll be awesome thank you june so the big thing with the lace if you
34:58
can see is just making so i found starting with the little one
35:05
it it uh you come it's all about directions so it brings you this way and then i go back with the
35:13
second loop this way but with the third loop it helps me go up my bracelet so
35:18
that was kind of why i'm doing it this way that makes sense um so i had to
35:23
think hard about how to make that happen i hear you
35:28
and now we're just doing the extra little mini loop of five
35:34
and that's the pattern i can i'll keep going or let's see how are we on
35:39
oh correction you can get it with the small wisdom warrior now oh well there you go guys
35:46
get your little bead board if you don't have the small wisdom warrior that's a great deal yeah it does
35:54
let's see um time-wise we look like you have plenty of time if you'd like to continue okay um
36:02
go ahead i was just gonna say um usually to do a tie off a cut off the board i
36:08
usually wait till about 7 45 but of course that's up to you yeah whatever works best for you that sounds good
36:16
i forgot to make the next one but this is fine well we can tie this one off
36:23
who knows in 15 minutes a miracle might happen you could get there you go do we have any questions about either
36:30
the base i can go back and look at that or about the lace zach says dingle dangle's messing with
36:37
you amber i know see they're right here from my my buttonhole bracelet yes
36:44
that's such a pretty one going for those vibes too yeah going for
36:49
the whole beachy beachy vibe right
36:55
picking up our three here for our first loop
37:01
now i won't be here next week but trish will be teaching you guys you want to tell them what they have in
37:08
store for next week we're going to do a project with soft flex on the original
37:14
loom we're going to do some earrings with some pyramid beads i will pop on
37:21
hopefully tomorrow to give you the materials list but it's going to be quite fun something
37:28
new something exciting for us to try so hey i can't wait i'm excited
37:35
i think it'll be fun for everyone to give them another another uh use for their soft flex
37:43
now i'm picking up the five so i gotta remember two gray not three gray a blue
37:50
and then two more gray awesome zack says very beautiful creations
37:56
bracelet darling amber oh thank you she is a darling
38:05
can't visit the beach this summer so i had to bring the beach to me and there you go that's the way to do it oh not five
38:12
sorry folks this one's a seven i'm not brain that's all right beautiful
38:18
there we go we got sharp sharp people in our group here though they have figured
38:23
out yeah so i just pulled it back out so i can add in
38:29
i need to add in a couple beads here bonnie says it's awesome that you give
38:35
the material list early yeah that's something we just started and it seems like everyone likes it so
38:41
we're gonna try to continue that yeah seems like
38:47
it helps out so hey let's we can certainly do it yeah
38:54
it was fun to see some of you had gotten your materials beforehand that's so fun
38:59
[Music] love that you're beating along with us there we go
39:07
originally i tried five but it didn't lay right so that's probably why it's in my head so three seven and now on to
39:14
go gotta just weave back to the right side and do my eleven
39:23
so this is the odd count out odd count anklet
39:28
robin says i can't wait to get my sun weaver board that i cool
39:34
nice we'll have to do a project on that someday for sure
39:44
i think i'll have to get an updated one i don't know you have the older one don't you yeah i do
39:49
i mean which is fine it still works for sure but to see you know always kind of get the
39:56
news yes maria says she's beating along and nicole
40:02
says this is very pretty oh thank you
40:07
blue sky 75 says thank you so much amber it's so pretty and fun oh
40:14
thank you blue sky welcome welcome do we what's your name
40:21
do we know you we probably do no one else and we just forgot um
40:26
let's see here um carolyn says also pretty project amber
40:32
with a smiley face thanks we have the best folks that hang out i
40:37
know so yeah so there we go we got the the three the five and the eleven and now
40:45
we don't have to weave a lot for this little extra fiber uh fiber here
40:54
how are we doing on time um it's about 22. you could certainly stop if you'd like
41:01
if everyone feels comfortable how are you guys feeling
41:07
yes you know me as joanne blue sky says oh hi joanne becky says very pretty
41:14
are you guys feeling are you ready to take it off the loom are you feeling like you kind of got the concept or do
41:20
you want us to do a few more whenever to do a few more because i'm being lazy tonight that's okay
41:28
i tell you what i worked so hard yesterday i am more out i'm sure tons of videos and
41:35
all kinds of stuff so as you can see uh to make the the loops here work
41:41
i just add in this little extra loop in between them to bring this is yes ready to
41:49
move on where's the link for today's special
41:54
joan can you put up uh the uh what was it the gem cut special again
42:01
yeah the gem cuts yeah for deborah there that'd be great okay well virtually you just keep doing the
42:08
lace until you get to the end yeah so that's i'm gonna tie a little
42:13
knot here and i can just finish it up fix it later off the loom it won't be as easy but
42:20
it's certainly doable so yeah i've
42:25
just tie so don't lose any beads
42:31
yes that's a good idea if you do ever have to stop and for some reason guys
42:36
just make sure you know where your needle is and you know you don't want your thread to
42:43
get pulled because of you know it can pull off the beads things like that
42:48
that handy dandy little cork piece yes right of course i'll probably get myself
42:53
tangled here but ah all right the original loom you have to turn all the way over this one's really
43:00
pretty if you want to turn it over but you don't need to it's just on the ends you need to cut off
43:05
maria says this is my first time using eight o's and something other than thread slash wildfire oh fun this is
43:13
exciting nice good so
43:21
do turn it over a little always hold your beadwork whether you're on this loom or any of the other looms when you
43:28
go to cut it off just so it doesn't go flying on you get your cutters in there i like to try if i can
43:36
cut all the way back here it doesn't always work but sometimes i can save some of the threads that way
43:44
sometimes not but it's always an attempt
43:50
and it's harder to cut there but on the small wisdom warrior you just don't have as much extra
43:57
as you do with the original
44:02
there we go so it takes a little longer to try and get cut it off that way but
44:09
i like and then the other side you should be able to just unravel
44:16
there we go let's get that out of our way
44:21
so you want to pick the longer side obviously to be where you're going to
44:27
put um where you're going to tie off to slide your button through
44:32
um and then this side will be just your button as you can see i don't have as much
44:39
on this side so i just put my button on the shorter side that way i have enough room to make
44:45
extra loops if i need and then i'm just getting rid of all
44:51
this extra stuff out of my way cut this
45:00
and then you're going to take your ends
45:06
and just tie them off am i still there
45:13
everything got quiet oh you muted yourself for just
45:25
so two knots make sure you don't pull too tight that you warp your warps
45:33
um so i just like to do two knots i find with hemp i don't always have to
45:39
use glue but if you want to you can but i feel like it stays
45:44
a lot of the time pretty well when you nod it
45:50
but
45:56
maria said that it's building faster than the 11 0's i'm used to using
46:02
yes it's a real quick the base is a real quick build yeah which is nice that's where the
46:08
edo's come in nicely and it gives you a lot of space particularly to go back and forth and do
46:14
the lace um with the edo's it's harder when you do the lebanos there's just not as much
46:21
space so i have that tied off i threw in my
46:26
wildfire in with the knots where you can burn it off glue it
46:31
up to you and then i'm just gonna put my button on so i take two
46:38
of my threads through one hole and two of my threads through the other
46:45
hole and just tie
46:50
an overhand knot nothing too fancy
46:56
so two overhand nuts
47:05
there we go got your button and you can trim these if you want
47:11
um sometimes i might trim them to match but otherwise i like to keep them a little longer
47:18
but that's preference see as you can see i kept
47:23
this one a little longer it also allows me if i need to move the button out a little
47:29
while i'm trying to get it situated it makes that possible so i have to cut
47:35
the ends of my loops here what were you gonna say trish um um lizzy had a good suggestion she thinks the knobby should
47:42
be a screw type something screws type she said something to think
47:47
about huh so yeah the knobs on the end of the looms
47:52
could be like a screw type yeah you can mention that to
47:58
yes absolutely yeah i don't know if i'll remember to tell you tell her that
48:04
well she usually watches these so yes she'll probably see it or hear it um
48:10
let's see so i trimmed and now i'm just gonna not up against the warp again
48:17
go ahead trish if there's another question um not questions but wayne says he agrees with lizzie and vicky said i
48:24
gave up trying to keep up she said kitty time is important too especially when she's demanding verbally yes and sherry
48:33
says beautiful design thank you thank you everyone and that's so sweet
48:38
we do appreciate it i'm not that i had anything to do with this design but i'm just saying in
48:44
general we appreciate it when you say those things
48:51
when it's my time i appreciate it too yes it means a lot yes
48:57
that's what i'm trying to say my interpreter cleared that up for me
49:02
though so once again i just knotted off the warps make sure it's not too tight
49:09
uh and uh and now i'm going to
49:15
lay it out and what i do is i bring my button up and i kind of
49:20
gauge how far i need to make my knot from my work in order for my
49:28
button to fit in nicole has a question for you that i put up on screen
49:34
would a slide clasp work oh yeah most certainly i don't know
49:39
how that would hold up on an on an anklet but yeah you could definitely i've never tried a slide class on an
49:45
anklet but you could certainly do it i mean it's eight o's so you could it's harder to slide the clasp over the
49:52
hem sometimes but if you do the thinner hemp and yeah you should be able to i to
50:00
slide it over and we have some wonderful love coming through your tutorials um
50:07
mean a lot to us julian this is a lovely design maria says and
50:13
vicky says i look forward to my time with you ladies it makes my day we feel the same
50:19

54:46
the um silver silk loom or was it the original oh she said a peyote stitch a piano stitch but yeah

55:26
yeah it's a little teaser what if i just
55:32
go i can't wait i am so excited because i'm so glad one of you suggested it and
55:39
the button yeah and we'll do a pendant i know someone asked about a necklace so we'll
55:44
have to bust out doing a necklace here sometime soon for sure yeah
55:50
the only problem with doing like a necklace on lives is
55:55
that we can't try to make them in real time even like bracelets are touch and go sometimes with that or ankles yeah
56:02
earrings we can kind of do real time most of the time yeah that's the real in-depth but
56:07
we'll make it work we always make it happen oh she said the flexibility of the soft
56:14
flex was inspirational but it wasn't on it okay well we're gonna do it
56:22
i'm so excited i'm excited too all right guys well thank you to amber and to joan as always
