Amerikas

I started working on my newest piece of bead embroidery this week, about is a picture of about 65% of the piece that I have. The beads that are places now are beads that friends have given me: Sharon Hessoun gave me two ceramic beads, Maggie McCloud gave me the Swarovski rivoli, the scarab is from Dr. Maged Tanios, and a small piece of a bead from one of my Peruvian doctors - might be Jan Prazak, MD.

I anticipate that this piece will take me several months to finish because of the size. It's about 8 inches high by 17 inches long. I want to have all colours in the piece - varigating colours in the different area.

Intriquing looking. I'm looking forward to seeing it progress!

I've been looking and looking at this piece and love the design! I love the intriguing lines. One small question - Do you really want that triangle bead where it is? Is this a male moose?
Cheers, Denise

Well, heck Denise - I didn't even notice that!! (And I usually do notice that kind of stuff)

I'll have to move it a little further.....south.

But it is a male moose. Female moose don't have antlers.

hahahaha, it took me ages just to see the moose, never mind the where the triangle bead was placed!
Cheers, Denise

I saw the moose and didn't even make the connection. I'm past my fertile years, but I think it would be smart to move it to somewhere else. I like the asymmetrical symmetry.
