Shibori Silk Ribbon and Beading...

Shibori is a Japanese tie-dying technique, and everyone is adding Shibori ribbon to their beaded embroidered pieces. Here are a few photos of beautiful pieces found on the internet...

  

I recently finished this one...

I will do a neckpiece next...

My third attempt at CGB...

So I believe I've finally got the concept of Contemporary Geometric Beadwork (CGB), and this is my final attempt to create a cooty-catcher bangle. It's not correct. It should be symmetrical and it's not. I don't have the right number of points. There should be an equal or not-equal number of points, but I just don't care anymore. It takes tooo long to make one. I at least won't be making another until some different instructions come out. It takes a certain type of brain to just start one and know that it will turn out correct.

Anyway, I like it, but it's not right and I think it's weird...
