While I was putting away the things that have accumulated on my work table, I rediscovered this piece of bead embroidery. I don't remember deciding to stop working on it - but it was buried pretty deep under the layers, so I know it has been a while since I laid eyes on it.
Now that I don't wear contact lenses any more, I find that I can see those little beads so much better without any glasses at all. It makes it tough to watch TV while beading, but I keep my bifocals handy and pop them on when things get exciting, so I do OK. It's nice to have a project that I can work on in a room that is air-conditioned.
I am such a sissy about the heat.
I am so glad I put up this photo today, because now I can see that I need to add something a little dark to the upper part of the right hand segment to keep the colors balanced. If I keep at it, I should be able to finish the beading this weekend and get started on the fringe. I have some drop pearls that will be just perfect for this.

Isn't it amazing how taking a pic and then viewing it can give us such a different perspective on whatever it is we are working on? I like to take several as I am doing my faces, especially the eyes... to make sure they are the same sizes. I don't seem to notice such significant differences with the nakes eye...but, with the camera...yikes..I see huge variations in things..
