Hello, This is the first thread I have started myself, how exciting! Anyway, I went to Intergem last weekend and I have to say I was a little disappointed. There were so many bead venders and not so many actual jewelers but there was still lots to see. While I was there I sat through the pearl knotting class and ended up buying some very inexpensive pearls, thread and findings and these are the result, I really enjoyed it and can see myself doing many more. I now see the appeal of all those beads! I picked a slightly lavender pearl with a light gray / taupe silk thread, I wish I would have gotten a slightly lighter thread but live and learn, we practiced in the class with a poly thread and I found that much easier to work with then the silk, I may try the fishing line next. Here are the pics.
