Oh the ladies are so beautiful.
All the beads just give it the special something and make it even more wonderful! I'm glad that you go on with this even if you consider these lovely ladies evil for all the nasty beads. Go on beat the beads

Re: Mermaid Project New Pictures 6-2-2011
Rose - as others have stated, this project looks amazing.
I have been contemplating this past week about whether or not I want to start this project. It would be a wedding gift for a friend (I found out last week that she and her fiance like mermaids). Not sure though.
Keep up the progress - each bead brings you closer to the end.

Your ladies are stunning Rose
Isn't it funny how we all have our likes and dislikes in stitching, you hate beading where I love it but hate blended colours and backstitch

Re: Mermaid Project New Pictures 6-2-2011
I finally just bit the bullet and sat down and finished this. I spent the last 5 days working through all the beads and metallics.
Thank God they are done. I can get them out of here. Not even sure if I will spend the time tp wash them. I really dislike them that much.

Re: Mermaid Project New Pictures 6-7-2011
Wonderful finish, Rose!!
I can understand the feeling about just wanting to finish it to get it over and done with. I enjoy stitching, but finishing some projects can be tedious.

Congratualtions. It is absolutely stunning. And since I too am a "bead despiser" I truly admire your fortitude. It turned out lovely.

Have one on me.

Yaaay it is all done
. this is definitely motivation if you can do all those beads I can finish up my bluebell. Maybe for punishment of having you finish off this project you can have your friend wash and frame it muwahaha.... sound good, or is that just horrible?!?!
