On Tuesday I dropped by the Mountain Spinners and Weavers UFO's. That is not from outer space....it means Unfinished Objects!
Normally, all of the members of this group are either knitting or finishing fringe work on their handwoven pieces, but lately they have been bringing in their seed bead work as well. What can I say...I was excited to see their work.
Here is a piece by Maryanne Davidson. Maryanne is a weaver, jewelry designer and a glass artist. She creates all of her fused glass buttons for her finished work as well as the cabochons for her bead work.
Sharon Richards showed me her bead work. Along side the seed beads you can see the Holiday Card invitation from Arts Prescott Cooperative Gallery on Historical Whiskey Row. This group was the first to get one. I picked them up at the gallery for them. The image is a painting by gallery member Bernie Lopez. More on that at a later date.
Sharon is a weaver, spinner and beader. She is part of the group which demonstrates spinning at Sharlot Hall Museum every Monday from 10 AM to 2 PM. If you want to see some great spinners you must drop by the Museum and watch them at work.
Anne Marston is a weaver, spinner and also a designer of jewelry.

These ear rings are created with my Arizona Bead Soup. Each time I finish a project the remaining seed beads go into my Bead Soup tray and I call them Arizona Bead Soup.
