Artists LOVE to Share......


I came home after a wonderful weekend to a little brown box in my mailbox -- from Grace. What was in the box, well - take a look. Look at all of these beautiful glass beads and teeny tiny doll form. What to do with these - I have no clue -- but Grace has a tutorial on her blog (along with some stunning beadwork she has done. ) Be sure to check out the doll she made to donate to the "Bead for the Cure" cause here, that is currently holding an auction on e-bay -- she is absolutely stunning. Also check out Grace's blog to see her other beautiful items AND a wonderful beading tutorial. I can't wait to try this -- although I'm not so sure of the outcome - I'm gonna give it a go! I'll be sure to post a picture when I have her finnished. But don't hold your breath -- it's gonna take a while to sew all of those miniscule beads onto that little doll!

  1. Second attempt to leave a message (don't you hate when blogger eats comments?)... anyway, I'm so excited to see what you do with this little one. If I didn't tell you before, the form was made by Monica and the face by Jen Martin at GraphixOutpost.

    Thanks for the link to the BFAC site as well. I'll begin working on my project for next year soon...

    And by the way, when you get a chance - pop over to my blog and see photos of my incredible winnings including that awesome quilt you made.

  2. So now I know two things about you that I knew but hadn't seen your blog to connect them with someone. You are the winner of Grace's doll. I hope you enjoy beading her as much as I did the spirit doll for my sister. And that you are the one who made the gorgeous sunflower quilt for Grace. I loved how you did all that stitching on it.
    Thanks for coming by and seeing my blog. I am adding yours to my blog roll.
