Semi-beaded Buell X1 Lightning motorcycle.
10"wide x 6". Beadwork in progress. Click to enlarge.
Yay! I finally stitched tire treads to the wheels of my beaded motorcycle! I used metal zippers for this. I also stitched the front tire to rest of the bike! Looks pretty cool, but I am still not finished. I have a couple more details to add. There are a few design issues I need to figure out, as well... like how to finish the piece! But for now, I will just marvel at my own beadwork. ;)

Thanks everyone!! Glad you like it!! :D
really cool, but, I'm not sure I understand...
You used a zipper to make the treads...
Is the4 zipper usable and you can put lil stuff in the tires?
Hope you don't mind if I join you in your marveling! WOW.
(You know that this is just dying to end up on a black ... or white ... leather jacket.)
WoW!
I want one!
Absolutely awesome!
It looks wicked!! I love the texture of the zipper on the tire. You never cease to amaze me with your creativity and resourcefulness!
The details on this are amazing!
The zipper is a perfect touch.
Zipper tread! I love it! (And if you don't put it on canvas, or a leather jacket, I could totally see it on one of those big leather bags with the long, long fringe. Start singing now: Born to be wild . . . )
Wow, you are boosted on many websites currently. Congrats! :)
i'll just add to the admiring chorus: super cool!
I am marveling at you too!!! Love the zipper treads...they are so cool! Always thinking outside of the box!!! Love it!
Nice interview too! You do inspire other beaders to think about trying something they don't think they can accomplish! I'm one of them! ;-)
