Obsession

Sometimes, obsession is a good thing.


Once I started making the leaves, I simply could not stop. I absolutely love them.

I got a request for a beagle and, like most new things, it took a while to get it right. I must have made 5 not quite beagles before getting one that really achieved beagleosity. In the end, the obsession paid off...

Okay the beagle is cute but the leaves are one of a kind. They are beautiful the colors are scrumptious. Love them I guess the fall is coming and after that the dreaded winter. Oh I hate the cold. Jan

Thank you Jan! Yes, the fall is all but here. It was c-c-c-old last night! I wore my snuggly pajamas to bed and everything.

Kaye - thank you! I think they would make a great necklace, too. I love the colors of autumn (shhhh...don't tell anyone!)

Val - the beagle looks like a simple dog to do but the darn thing eluded me like you wouldn't believe. I am happy with the final beagle bead. I like the expression too. Thank you!
