? B&B issue has the ginko leaves ?
bluemaxx
the old issue that shows how to make the ginko leaf necklace. I think
it's by Diane Fitzgerald and I was positive that I had that mag.
<frustrated>
I've checked at the B&B website, but I can't remember the name of the
article and just reading the names of the articles (all the way back to
1997) doesn't give me any clue in order to find which issue it's in. I
tried narrowing it down to only necklaces & brickstich, but that didn't
help either. They have "names" for the articles that don't tell me a clue
which one might be the ginko leaf instructions.
Does anyone know which issue this is? (month/year) Or if Diane
Fitzgerald did do this stitch, is it included in any book of hers to buy
that details how to make the leaves? TIA :)

I think Karen is right - we have all seen the pictures, but that was in ads for
classes etc. (which may be what you were thinking of)
If you wanted to try something similar on your own, IIRC it is 2 or 3 drop
brick stitch w/ lots of increases.

Diane had a different project in one of the mags, she's never had the
gingko necklace up for free, she sells kits.

The best and worst thing about beads is that so many of them fit a tiny
shopping bag, or even my purse (once I've paid for them of course). My
husband asks me what I've spent, and I can answer "a couple of bucks."
Even if the numbers have worn off my credit card, and my purse is in flames
from an excess of spending, it's still only a very small shopping bag.
Hence, the "couple of bucks" ploy works every time. :-)

Well, I don't take Gingko/Ginkgo Herbs and am terrible at spelling BUT
I knew Ginko was not quite right so I looked it up. And far be it for
me to actually get up and pick up a dictionary and page thru it to look
something up! (besides, that paper version is 20 years old and weighs a
ton) I found the two spellings on the Google search engine,
www.encyclopedia.com and the Merriam /Webster dictionary site.
Seems like both spellings are acceptable and even when it is not spelled
with enough "G" s people seem to understand.
Happy New Year,

spelled.
But when the correction was made I got curious. And when someone said both
spellings were used, I looked again in my seed catalogues and herbalists,
and again found only the one spelling. It makes me even more curious about
the other spelling. Thanks for the source. I'm just an anachronism, I
trust books way more than the web.
Happy New Year to you too. We gained 5 minutes of daylight today!

FWIW, my online dictionary software spells it "gingko".
I think perhaps it gets confused with "gecko", which would give rise to the
one-g spelling. <g>
