Stuff Beaders Say

Just stumbled on this on Jean Campbell's site! (Be sure to watch to the end; the vacuum is the best part!)

Why 'Torque Story'?

What does the name of my blog mean? I'm no physicist, but my understanding of "torque" is that it is force that causes a thing to rotate. Many of my designs--from my peyote-stitched and Russian spiral necklaces to my intricately braided kumihimo cords--feature spirals created by torque.

The spirals and twisty-bumpy beading and braiding techniques hold special resonance for me because they symbolize the journey we all take that makes us who we are. We set out on straight paths but take various twists and turns as life gets in the way. This makes us far more interesting people, and makes for far more interesting jewelry.
