Sodalite Cabachons with seed beads.

This is what I have accomplished so far on my bead embroidery bracelet. I am just not sure where to go next with the band of the bracelet. As you can see from all my markings on the fabric I have tried several different designs and have ripped them all out. So far I have ripped 3 times and now have decided to wait until I decide what to do with the rest of the band. This is certainly where my inexperience with bead embroidery shows, with experience under my belt I would know where to go from here.
Here are the beginnings of some doodles for future projects.

Is this what you would do to plan out your next project?
Until Next Time

Just stopping by to tell you I have tagged you for a meme. However no obligation!
Wish you a great week!
This is really pretty so far. That seems like a lot of work to be ripping out very often.
I usually don't draw my projects. Mine are usually different combinations of yarn with bead dangles. It just sort of flows together for me. But I don't do anything as intricate as you!
That's really pretty! I love doing bead weaving - I've never tried bead embroidery! I'll have to add it to my list :)
Beautiful start!
Your bead work is just so beautiful. So much talent for one little lady.
Beautiful; I like how you sketch your idea out - all of your work is lovely!
Hi found you through entracard. I have been a bead artist for the past 41 years and an instructor for 25 years. The first thing I tell my students is get rid of the drawings. If you want to sketch an idea out on a separate paper that is great. However, for some trying to follow what is sketched leaves them stifled. Their artistic spirit usually has something else in mind and the drawing is like a wall. Allow your creativity to flow. Just go with it.
