beautiful Bluebell!

Finished yesterday, actually, but I was too worn out from all that beading to post!

Lots of pictures!  First, a note:

The deadline for my big giveaway has been changed to February 7 so I can take advantage of the current HAED sale for the chart winner.  So don't be shy - go check it out!

Okay, NOW pictures. :D

  14. Gorgeous! I think I need you to give me tips on putting in beads, yours look so much better than they do on my Mermaids of the Deep Blue.

    1. No waaay, I don't do anything special at all! I just pull a little tighter than I would for a regular stitch to help the bead sit upright on the fabric, but even still I get some that sag a bit. (I don't use a full cross, just one half cross - I'm lazy!)

      Maybe it's the beading thread? I use Nymo in size D for all my beading. It's stiffer than DMC.
