[Nfb-krafters-korner] Talismans

[River Woman]

Yes, I began learning to do this after I had lost half of my sight - I do 
not think I could be doing it now if I had tried with no sight at all - it 
takes me many weeks, working for hours a day to do a piece like this. Yes, 
it is as intricate as you can get, with many many beads, many colors, and 
very tiny work. I studied with Sherry Serafini who is an author and master 
bead weaver - her new book just came out this year.
