February BJP

This is my February Bead Journal Project piece, "Lovebug".
I chose red, pink, white and gold for my color theme this month and then just let the beads tell me where to put them.

  2. I love this one, too. But I'm curious about the shape and the shape of your January page. Are you going to fit them together or is the plan secret until the end of the year?

  3. Like Marty, I'm curious about the shape... Meanwhile, I love the warmth and colors of this piece... It does speak to me of "Love Bug"... that playful, loving nature of a child. You are really progressing rapidly as a beader!

  4. I love this, too - the swirls are great. Definitely keeps the eye moving and is very fun! I love how you finished it on the fabric with the bigger beads around the edge, etc. I realized with my January piece that I need to pay more attention to my finishing plans! Didn't leave enough margin...:)

  5. Oh, I wish my beads would talk to me as well as yours talk to you! They told you where to put them, and they are perfectly placed. Lovely!

  6. Thanks, everyone, for your comments. The unusual shapes will eventually fit together to make a puzzle.
