I can see that stabilizing the string would help. This is the last thing to be completed on Dr. A, so I'll try again.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382209172583398305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7949761035348585854.post-33302752891238154632010-10-23T08:48:01.037-05:002010-10-23T08:48:01.037-05:00Hi Melinda,
Here's what Amy suggested about th...Hi Melinda,<br />Here's what Amy suggested about the Dr. A beading:<br /><br />"The second row of the peyote beading is the hardest. I also had problems keeping the line straight. Will try to give advice from memory. Put a finger of your left hand under the string of beads to lift them off of the canvas and help to stabilize them. Aim the needle up or down away from the beads as you slide it through each bead on the return trip. Hang in there....I really mean it, the second row is totally the hardest to do. In row three the beads stay pretty much where they are supposed to, making it a piece of cake. After row three I wished that there were more rows to work!"<br /><br />Thanks, RobinRobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08388278155875244126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7949761035348585854.post-66173531807881810432010-10-22T11:40:38.669-05:002010-10-22T11:40:38.669-05:00Hi Jane,

I was thrilled at finding the colorful sequins at the Michael's store. Yes, these two (Bailey & Elliot) keep us laughing every day.

Hubby is a golfer big time, and now that name just seems to fit him. Love the video of Elliot and Bailey too.

Best friends, indeed.

I don't know that Bailey is learning his lesson but I'm sure he will at some point. I'm sure they are best of friends.<br /><br />This is off topic but I am struggling with the peyote beading on Dr. Acula's coffin. I understand the concept of what we are doing with each row of beading but I can't translate that into actually doing it. My beads on the second row will not stay in place at all. After about 4 attempts tonight on the second row, I am just not "getting it". Amy's instructions are quite detailed but if there are any other suggestions or hints, I would appreciate hearing them.

Does Amy sell the 'cooking up a canvas' guides or are those only for the person she is doing the guide for? Thanks for sharing; and I too am dismayed it is already October 20th!
