and up close of the heads to see the beads. the pattern didnt call for a bead for the eye, but my fractional didnt come out very successfully, so i added a bead to make it defined :D

I am planning on getting it framed and putting it somewhere :thinks: not sure where yet though :lol:

What a fabulous project. I love how the two versions look so different and bring different details to the fore. Well done Lisa for finishing this so quickly, you must be really proud of it. And k1ns, I hope once you move and get settled you'll be straight back onto this one :D :D :D :D

I love them both :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:
