Doll Journey: The Flood, the Big Reveal

Along with a new doll, a flood of other things have been flowing on and off my desk. Wow, what a rush!
The list I had has been dwindled down to just a few things undone. I did finish my Gualtier Challenge piece and outfit, the vests, curtains, and even got that RR bird winging its way to completion.

I had planned on designing a new advanced Cog Kit for my Bead Fest students but all I managed to do was get my samples sent to Interweave for a photo shoot. I am delighted that asked to include my samples in their promotional photos.

This morning, a new "Steamin' Inchies" kit and tutorial materialized...I wish it were really that easy but it was easier than some other tutorials I've written.

Now for the
The Big Reveal
Here is the concept drawing coming to form.
The Rushing Waters of The Flood are Coming your way!

I am still recovering from a major life change but I am allowing my life to become better and trying very hard to not become bitter... I am finding that I am not having to try so hard at it lately. I have hope. I have a new vision. I have wisdom to stop and pray. I have Grace. I have Mercy. And most of all, I have love. I have the love of so many sweet supporters and friends and family. People who constantly encourage me and remind me of why I create. Why I love to teach people. Why I get out of bed each morning.

The over the top Beaded Cogs Steampunk Style necklace I created for the Fashion Colorworks 2010 Beading Contest made it to the finals. You can go and rate the top ten from 1-5 here . Here are the fabulous photos my wonderful photographer (Thanks again BRAD!!!) took and while it was at his house his wonderful wife and president of the Dallas Bead Society got to prance around and wear it for the day. I told her she had to wear it for a whole day before she sent it home to me! He takes awesome photos!!! It wasn't the first time my beady friends have snagged it to wear for the day. One of them still claims it is a birthday gift that I haven't given to them yet. Thanks for stopping by!

Thank You

I want to thank everyone for your kind comments on "Effy' whether here or by email. I also want to thank everyone who has been encouraging me to pursue the many facets of beading as an art and a business. Who would have thought one thing could be so fulfilling in so many different facets. The result of having such encouraging friends is the developement of my very first pattern and kit. Beaded Cogs SteamPunk Style And there are four colorways. I have a limited number of kits right now but after I teach my first class I will be able to put together more. If you want more information you can leave a comment with your email and I will get back to you.
