Looming Large

Well I'm enjoying having the time to really get into my craft's.
I took the plunge and bought a Loom, not just any old loom but a Mirrix Loom!
It's fabulous!
I intend to do a wall hanging of a frog , of course, but firstly I needed to learn all the
fun things this loom can do.
So here is my first serious project it's a beaded cuff.

 I enjoyed making it so much I made two and am in the process of doing a headband also.
Need to pay homage to the ladies from Mirrix, they share lots of tips and tricks as well as patterns on their blogs
http://awordfromelena.blogspot.com/  and http://mirrixlooms.blogspot.com
and the Mirrix site http://www.mirrixlooms.com/
Looking forward to bead weaving my frog, lots of pretty beads ready to use.

Cheers, Dinah

There are lots of places here using rock & roll type connections. I wasn't able to get a photo but there was an Asain restaurant named "The Hard  Wok Cafe" I don't think anyone is lining up to get                                                                                   Across the road from the Cabin is Liverpool's bombed out church, St Lukes. It was amazing to see the contrast of the lush gardens surro...
