Elemental Series Complete!!

I finally finished my Elemental Bead Embroidery Series today. :) I am very excited and will be submitting my Bead Dreams application tonight (or tomorrow at the latest, since that's the deadline)!  I really like how Earth turned out. It is so hard to get a good photo of this piece!!!

Bravery (or progress towards impossible goals)

Well, I decided that I want to enter my Elemental Bead Embroidery Panel Series into the Bead Dreams competition this year. I'm not sure if it's even possible, since I have almost half of it to go and the entry deadline is the beginning of April... and I'm an accountant. Not really the best time for me to plan to spend hours and hours working on this. But if I'm going to enter, this is the year to do it, so I'm going to try my hardest to get it done by then.

Wish me luck!!

Elemental Fire - Scanned

Well, I finally got my scanner hooked up (to an old computer since it doesn't work on Windows XP or Vista) and was able to get a good shot of my Elemental Fire panel.  :)  Click to see a VERY large detailed version.

Elemental Fire - complete!

Finally done with panel 2!  On to panel 3 - Elemental Water.

Elemental BJP - "Fire" Update

Well, I've finally been able to get back to this project. Lots of things going on in my personal life keeping me from being productive, but hopefully, that's all behind me now.

On a side note, I just saw The Dark Knight - WOW! Best movie of the summer, I think!

Fire (2nd Quarter BJP) Update

Well, not as much progress as I'd hoped, but it's better than none!

"Fire" Progress Update

Going to start working on this again tonight. Looking forward to finishing the outside so I can start on the flames inside. "Water" is next, and I'm looking forward to using lots of blues again.
