I've done some native american beading, either sewing a strand of beads
in place in a pattern, or doing the loomwork in flat bands...

but most of my beading is gemstone-type work on sterling wire, or strung
necklaces. I like to play with the victorian style stuff and also do
rosaries:

My #1 favorite hobby/love tho' is still doing wire wrap and wire
sculpture. This is done in sterling on a piece of tumbled Labradorite:

Sorry, no pics of the seed bead work. :-) It's been a very long time....
