She Bead Done!

And winging her way to...my swap partner. Guess I won't quite reveal who that is yet. There were 8 of us total, and the interpretation of a beaded doll to swap was quite different, even with minimum sizes and general guidelines. Once the new owners receive their dolls, I'll post the rest. For now, this is how mine looks, complete (front & back). Oh, and thanks to Monica Magness, known as girl_gone_thread_wild on eBay for beautifully constructed, well stuffed doll blanks. Terrific for beading and other art doll creation!

Simply gorgeous - lucky swap partner. This must have taken hours, and hours, and hours of work :)

I really respect anyone who can sit for hours and bead! This piece is going to make your partner ecstatic! It is just stunning!

She turned out GORGEOUS!I love how you graduated the bead colors in front, & left a bit of it with just the featured beads! And the back is spectacular! My friend Little Larger (Larger's cuz) is teaching me to bead in exchange for my teaching him to quill. I hope I can eventually make something 1/4 this lovely! LUCKY person, your swap partner!
