Beautiful finish Niki! Sorry to hear you've had another attack, starting a HAED sounds deserved and therapeutic to me!

Well done Niki she is so beautiful :applesauce: love the choice of material it really highlights the colours and beads. In one of the pics you have beads on a tray? That looks really useful where did you buy it from? Hope you are feeling better soon x

I gt the bead mat from eBay (it's sticky!) it's called a grey Beadsmith sticky mat. So done on here linked to it and I'm very grateful.

I can't do the direct link as I'm on my Ipad.

Thanks, i am feeling better, it just takes a few weeks to get my energy levels back up.

The medicine certainly is very good! Nearly done the first page....though it has bumped my next JE a bit....

Gorgeous, wonderful, fabulous, amazing ... :) :) :) :)
You have really done her justice. Can't wait to see her framed one day.

I hope you are feeling better and the attacks come fewer and further apart.

Wow! She turned out absolutely stunning. I have one complaint though. Oh why oh why did you make me go look at JE designs? Now there are so many that I want and my bank account is trying to hide already lol. This is the first time I have taken a look at these and oh my goodness there are so many that I want. Seeing how beautiful this one turned out really made me tell myself that I must add some to my wishlist at 123 stitch. So now I have three favourite designers I can choose from, oh boy!
