It's not easy bein' green
by Gail McHugh
Green Pearl Necklace This was my first attempt to string pearls. I didn't want to waste my good silk thread, so I opted to try out the stuff that comes on a card with a needle attached ~ Big mistake. I had a horrible time getting my knots close together...but I learned alot. I'm getting ready to work with some bigger pearls and this time, I'm going to use the method with the silk doubled up. I tried to upload the photos I took, but it just didn't work for me, I think I put the pics in the wrong place when I got them off my camera. But I'm going to make more after I knot another necklace and we'll be able to see if there is any improvement (I'm sure that there will be!) I learned a whole lot working on that first one.
