This is my final block in the beaded rr. I was sort of ALL over this block to help fill it up so if you go to my flickr account you'll find all the pics there. This rr has been a lot of fun! I hope that everyone enjoys the work i've done for them as much as i've enjoyed doing it! I did three butterflies, the snail, the feather stitched seam, the viney seam with leaves & flowers, the lace flower motifs (single & 3) at the top and the fairy! PHEW!!! LOL!! Now to catch up on some other blocks!!

Wedding Picture Pillow


This is the pic of my mom and dad posing in their wedding attire. I got the pic into my system, printed it on fabric, then made a pillow out of it. Of COURSE, I don't have a pic of that yet, but will the next time I get back to Denver. Envision roses, SRE, trailing ribbon and beads.

Mom's sweater





This was a year for many hand made or hand embellished gifties. This is a sweater for my Mom that I did some SRE on. She was enamoured with it so I guess it was a good gift! LOL!! I also created a little face brooch for her! She was so funny! She said she had been afraid that i'd forget her! Silly girl! LOL!!

What Color Is Your Soul Painted?


Brown Your soul is painted the color brown, which embodies the characteristics of calmness, depth, nature, stability, tradition, poverty, roughness, down-to-earth, uncertainty, and neutrality. Brown is the color of the element Earth, and represents soil and, to a lesser degree, fertility of the Earth.

Judy, from CQI (an online group) and I decided to have a personal swap of friendship dolls....soooo.... I created this one. I made one of my marbled fimo faces along with some other "treasures" beaded up what became the Spirit of Christmas! She encompasses the joy of the season and the child like golden spirit in everyones heart at Christmas. I did nothing but beaded embroidery and beaded edgings for this. On the front I captured a teddy for the little girl in her heart.... and on the back....

Last face for now is from my forest type faces family! I have been playing with trying to re-create the look of wood with fimo. Some are dark and some light as this is. She has a sweet smile and is dreaming of faraway trees and spaces filled with song! She too is for sale; finished with ultra suede and a brooch/pendant pin back! Enjoy!!

Soooo, this is the first of three pins that is for sale. I have started an Etsy shopped. We'll see how that goes! It is finished the same as my other pins, with a peyote stitch over the ultrasued and the brooch/pendant pin. Makes this more versatile I believe! On to the next one!
