Beginning Of The Bead Lusting.

Yes, This is the one that started it all.  I love her and every week or so I take her out and fondle and fawn and pet.  Sick I know but I can't help it!  I think she is beautiful.  She is hand embroidered and beaded.
Her tail feathers remind me of a peacock.  I used gold thread and royal blue pearl cotton for the french knots.

She measures roughly 5x5", is backed by felt and her hanger is beaded and knotted.  I was thinking maybe a 3x3" would make nice christmas tree ornaments.

Just a quick recap of bird number 2.  She was a gift for Becky.
Have a lovely weekend!

  2. And I love my bird, she is gorgeous, lives in my guest room at home in the states. Analisa has taught me this craft, it's great fun, we've spent a couple of mornings doing the beading so I've learned that she worked a long time on this bird. Thanks Analisa...I know you love me!!!!!
