Web site Update
March 8, 2026Welcome to the new Updates & Notices page. I’ve moved my site notices here to keep the front page clean, fast, and focused on the creative work itself. As part of this refresh, I’ve also removed all advertising from the site so your experience is quicker, calmer, and distraction‑free. My goal is to let the content — the bead sheets, templates, and new releases — speak for themselves. This dedicated page gives me a clear space to share important updates without taking away from the featured pages on the homepage. You’ll also find a link to this page in the header ribbon so it’s always easy to find
March 6, 2026 Today my website went down unexpectedly. When it came back online, many of my files were missing and I had to rebuild the site from scratch. Some older files were not recoverable after the server migration performed by my hosting provider. Because of this, the Points Program, the Paper Designer, and the Games are temporarily unavailable. The good news is that I downloaded all points account files last year, so most member accounts are safe. However, accounts created in 2025 were lost during the migration. This was completely outside of my control, and I’m truly sorry for the inconvenience. I will be rebuilding the Points Program and the Games with a more stable and modern system. They will return. Today I had planned to release Sheetworks Studio Version 2, but instead I spent the day restoring the website. Sheetworks Studio will still be released soon. It will be free, and expansion packs will be available separately.
Introducing Sheetworks Studio!
The First-of-Its-Kind Paper Bead Making Software
Built for makers who value simplicity, creativity, and speed.
Really folks—this doesn’t exist anywhere else. If you’ve ever wished for a faster, clearer way to design and print your bead sheets and paper bead templates, Sheetworks Studio is it.
Sheetworks Studio is a downloadable Windows app designed for paper bead makers who want precision, flexibility, and ease. No registration. No installation. Just unzip and launch.
10 Years in the Making! 5.5 months of actual coding! I thought of this app over 10 years ago and finally, after breaking my ankle, I had the time to make it happen!
New Updates
I reserve the right to make future Brand New Patterns and Projects, I add to the site, only available for purchase through paypal.
Paper bead templates, for the most part, will not be free. They will be available at Etsy as they are now, in bundles. I will make one template out of each machine and printable, but not the universal bundle free so you can see how they work. You can download just one sample of the universal templates so you can see how they work.
Even though this is what I do for a living, I will no longer be offering paid memberships, ever. It's just not worth the effort for what little income I got. My income will be from the paper back books, kindle books, paper bead tools, ad income from Google and YouTube, paper bead making software, templates, and anything I sell on Etsy and Amazon.
