The bottom right hand bead swirl is in the wrong place… unpicking for me tomorrow… which isn’t too hard as the knot hasn’t actually held… grrr…
Thank goodness for the new beading thread.

So Stargazer is going slowly. I did about 2 hours stitching on her:
A LNS/general craft sewing store turns one this week and was having a big sale – so 50c skeins of wool
Its uneven weave and I plan to make squares and sew it into a lap rug.
and $5 Dolly Mama patterns which I really didn’t need but are so cute:

This is such a slow process, because I don’t have a huge amount of practice at it.
With flash:
I don’t think the bead colours show up fantastically – the beads so far are a variety of colours – in the dark grey – silver, pewter, gold, pink and a bronze colour, and champagne pink for the external curls.
