BJP May - Get in Gear (for summer)

Finally finished May, piece no. 5 of the BJP puzzle. It took off in it's own direction finally, after floundering for awhile. I chose yellows and oranges to represent wildflowers blooming here.

Little Hummer

Here's my April BJP. I call it little hummer in honor of the hummingbirds returning after a long winter. They are a welcome sight!

Here is my March project :"Spring Fever", the next piece of the puzzle.
A variety of beads beaded on fabric with a layer of felt between.

Beaded wall quilt - Ocean Life

This is a wall quilt I designed and appliqued last summer. Finally got around to quilting it with beads and bead embroidery. It is much more sparkly than it appears. Size: approx 14x18 in.

Mountains Galore

Living in the midst of the Colorado high country, this beadwork was inspired by the vistas from my window. I love living in the mountains and they are a constant source of inspiration. The beading was done on white fabric with a sandwich of felt batting. it is approximately 6 inches square. This is my first attempt at completely covering the space in beads.

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.
