Time to vote on "Fashion Through the Ages"

Etsy Beadweavers Blog

There is still time left to vote for your favorite beadwoven creation in the Etsy Beadweavers' monthly challenge. This month's challenge was selected by our previous winner, Patrizia of Triz Designs. Patrizia has challenged our members to "Choose a fashion style from any period of fashion and design a piece to fit that chosen style/period." We do this for fun and to show the world the extent of our creativity...the prize is just the honor of selecting the next month's challenge. Please take a minute or two to look at all the wonderful designs, created entirely by hand and with original designs (using patterns from other designers is not allowed), and vote for your favorite. This month I entered a piece (#32) entitled "Metropolis", which plays on some of the design elements popular during the Art Deco period.

New viking knit project

Viking knit #4, originally uploaded by ambrosianbeads.

As with most of my projects, this one was actually started 6 months ago. I started beading the agate slab back in December...I had it sitting around and it just appealed to me to give it a peyote beaded edge. Today I'm hoping to give it the final touch of a bail...in the meantime, I worked on making a viking knit chain in black coated copper wire. I used 26 gauge wire and it worked out nicely in single weave, could've been too stiff in double. I always guess at the final length and stopped weaving at 11", hoping it would reach at least a comfortable choker length...well, lo and behold, it passed that length and I even have enough to make a bracelet. In this Flickr set, you can see the progression of "draws" (meaning each time I pulled it through the drawplate...it's what I call them, not sure if that's correct). Next after threading on the pendant, I will attempt to close off the ends with some copper caps and add a clasp...stay tuned for those pics !

Market Yawns as Greek Debt Deal Finalized; Deal? What Deal? Why Does it Even Matter?

At long last Euro zone, IMF agree on Greece debt deal.

Euro-zone finance ministers, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund reached a deal early Tuesday in Brussels that is expected to see them release more financial aid to Greece.

The euro-zone finance ministers, known collectively as the Eurogroup, said in a statement that a worse macroeconomic situation and delays in implementing assistance have resulted in a weaker outlook for Greek government finances.

The Eurogroup members said that the ?necessary elements are now in place? for member states to approve a European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) disbursement to Greece of 43.7 billion euros ($56.8 billion), with the formal go-ahead expected by Dec. 13.

Greece?s debt targets were also tweaked, with government debt now targeted to fall to 124% of gross domestic product by 2020, and to substantially less than 110% of GDP by 2022.

Eurogroup members said in a statement they are prepared to consider various measures to support Greece, including:

• Lowering interest rates on the Greek Loan Facility by 100 basis points
• Cutting guarantee costs for Greece?s EFSF loans by 10 basis points
• Possibly deferring interest payments on EFSF loans by 10 years.

The Eurogroup said that the measures will not affect the creditworthiness of the EFSF, the euro bloc?s bailout fund.

Deal? What Deal?

How the hell can there be a deal when the news clearly states the Eurogroup is prepared to consider various measures?

What kind of deal is that?

Why Does it Even Matter?

Let's assume for the moment that all of what the EU has considered actually happens. You still have to be nuts to think this makes the situation stable.

Supposedly "government debt is now targeted to fall to 124% of gross domestic product by 2020". This will be just another missed target in a long series of missed targets, not that 124% is remotely sustainable in the first place.

Yawn



The market seems to have had enough of these games. The euro barely moved on the non-news.
