Ravishing Rosettes and RUnway of Pearls are my two votes! (although Carol Wilcox Wells is my bead-weaving hero....but I like the look of the other two better!!)
Thanks again for doing this Karyn!
Runway of Pearls and Ravishing Rosettes are my choices, although I really like the ring too. Thank you for organizing this Karyn, and Merry Christmas to you and your family!
My vote is Fashion at your Fingertips, and Ravishing Rosettes. I do love the runway of pearls too, just don't have any triangle beads. :) Thanks for all your hard work dear!
Karyn, These are all great choices. Although I did suggest the Cairo Collar I am wanting to do something a little more challenging so my vote is also for Ravishing Rosettes and Runway of Pearls.
I can not wait to see what the final decision will be.
Happy Holidays
Therese
All of those are wonderful. I have to agree with everyone, though, and vote for Ravishing Rossettes and Rubway of Pearls. I would like to do Carol's piece in the future. :)
Hi...my vote is like the others :-) Ravishing Rosettes is on my "To-do-List" since I get the journal and Runway of Pearls is my second vote. I think it´s a lot of work...
Karyn...thanks for your work! Wish you Merry Christmas!
lol Well I like all of them... looks like Runway and Rosettes have the majority of the votes so far... So those are great with me! :)
I vote for 12th Night & Runway of Pearls -- 12th Night is my pick mostly because I'm wanting to learn cubic right angle weave and this might give me the shove I seem to need!
I like all of these choices so I will vote with the majority and say Ravishing Rosettes and Runway of Pearls!
I really like that Cairo Collar but I agree with Therese about wanting to do a more challenging project! But it sure is beautiful...I just might make one for myself one of these days!
Thanks for the warm welcome to Beading Babes...I look forward to beading with all of you!
