My Aeolian is finished!
Lounging on the patio
I absolutely love it! It’s HUGE, for starters-I did just slightly larger than the smallest size, but somehow it turned giant overnight. Blocking it was another challenge- those points are mighty hard to get just right. I finally gave up on getting them all perfect, and the edge is a little ruffly as a result.
The breakdown:
- 40 grams of size 8 Toho seed beads. Just a bit left over- enough for maybe one more row.
- 8 yucca repeats
- 2 agave repeats
- Full/ regular border
- Fully nupped! I learned a one-row technique that made them effortless.
I plan to enter this into a local county fair… do you think it will win?

Just lovely. What a great color, too!
It’s gorgeous! Ohmygosh! Well done!
And if this doesn’t win at the fair I want to see what (can’t imagine what it could be!) did.
Okay – must go check your project page for size stats, yardage etc…
That’s really lovely! What is the one row nupp technique that you learned?
