Beautiful project - I don't think I could force myself to give it away though

Well done on your finish, she's beautiful and I love how the face looks with the stitches over 1. Looking forward to seeing what you start next!

I first worked with beads on my last project - Firefly Fairies - which had quite a bit more beadwork. I found that I was well into my groove with this project - once you find the right needles and thread you are comfortable with - I found it quite easy.

Great eye - yes that is our Rottie. Herr Otto - aka 'Big Boy' - he was a puppy in that photo - he's now 120 lbs (but the cats still rule the house). Thank you - we think he is gorgeous too.

She is absolutely fabulous and doing the features in 1 over 1 is real hard work. I have thought of doing it once and chickened out, so congratulations on a great work well done.

I noticed him as we have 5 of our own .

Well, here it is - framed and all. Really pleased with how this turned out. Thanks for the support and hope you enjoy.

darn the flash in the photo!

Very pretty!!!!!!!

She is gorgeous, and I love the way the fabric really contributes to it, as does the frame!

Love the frame - it sets it off so well.

Beautiful!! What a great piece of work
