Blogging for jewelers and metalsmiths made easy! (and for those interested in jewelry and gemstones)

I have a new article on Tapestry Needleweaving available at Bella Online. The link is http://www.susanspassionforjewelry.com/experts_diana_kirkpatrick.htm I’ll have new articles available each month.

I’ve been hard at work weaving – wire mostly. Photos of all of my new stuff should be up on my website shortly. Go to http://www.dianakirkpatrick.com/ to see all my new pretties.

I have a feature and bio published on Bella Online. Please take a look.

We’re into the holiday season big time! It’s December 1 and I’m doing my first Middle East Dance weekend in several years. It’s fun to see old friends and make some new acquaintances. I’ve been working on new woven wire pieces and I just came up with a variation on my traditional fiber weaving necklaces.
