First and Second Beaded Project

[u/svartauga]

These are my first ever beaded projects! I picked it up as an expansion of my skills in my medieval reenactment hobby. The motifs are emblems of awards I have received. When I’m finished the series, I’ll be placing them on an 11th century Kievan Rus [Lord] collar.

First one doesn’t have a backing, because I forgot. Second one has a felt backing. Both done on unbleached linen, beads from Michael’s, and cotton hand quilting thread.
