:wub: Maybe you can convince your friend that the metallics and beads are fun part of the design and you can pass it off on her :wink:

Looks gorgeous! 1000 beads is really a lot but I believe it will look stunning in the end :)

I think maybe the reason this one is going well for me and not a chore is because I love the color green also. Not sure it would be as fun if it were another color. :thinks:

It's looking wonderful Rose!
Could you split it into two and when you've got so far on the first half do all the beads and metallics in that before carrying onto the next half?

No I am thinking that I want to do all of the beads at the same time. Not sure why, it is just the way I like to do them. I could do the metallics as I go I have a bit done in the girls hair but I just made a decision to wait on the metallics for the fins. I am not worried about it just is funny to think that about 1/3 of the whole pattern is beads. :lol:
