This one is so beautiful, isn't it? I'm still amazed at what computers can do! Print this up on a fabric sheet and work into your crazyquilt projects.
I have some yard work to do and then I'll get back to working on my peacock!

One Of Gina's Peacocks
I finally was able to start stitching on one of Gina's Peacock designs. I love the primative look of this little one so decided to do him first!
Call me crazy (it's ok, really!) I'm stitching the entire design with Rayon floss! I'm sure many of you know how challenging rayon threads are to work with but isn't the shine amazing?
If I have the right colors, I want to use some crystals in the centers of the tail feathers. And because I "must embellish" I'll probably find a place for a few seed beads. If they look good!
I want to make this into a handbag for myself.

Fish Under The Sea Block - Complete!
I completed this project yesterday afternoon and I must say, I absolutely love it and want to do another Fish Under The Sea quilt now!
What a change of pace from traditional crazyquilting! I use some broken jewelry that I got in a bag of misc. pieces at a flea market last Summer. Lot's of sequins, real seashells, pretty little fish charms, dyed freshwater pearls, semi-precious stone chips and of course, some beads.
And speaking of handbags, that's probably what I'll do with this piece.
