Started beading

My theme for my journal is windows. I see this project as an open window to new skills, ways of thinking....I find myself wanting to use my tried and true techniques and it's an effort to learn new stitches. I have the embroidery book by Robin and I found another book that is more of a textbook on stitches. So, I feel all thumbs like when I first started beading and I have a sense of discovery...I am climbing through an open window!
