It's meeting time again!  This Thursday, Eastmont Towers, 2nd floor.  7:00 p.m.  I am leading the group in a triangle and squares project.  I don't have any squares pics, but will have a couple to show you at the meeting :)  

But here are some of the triangles I have made:

This one would be a more advanced project...but if you want to do a patterned triangle like the one above, you can print out patterns from this site:

Or you can make up your own pattern like I did with these:
Bring any size beads you would like.  I have used Delicas, size 11's or 8's.  Any colors you want to bring, but I do suggest at least 2 colors to start with.  See you Thursday!
