Latest Internet projects finished.
Written by Sue on March 21, 2008 – 9:28 am -Last Wednesday night saw me trying to finish this little lady, that is without spilling my beads over the table too many times!!. This fairy developed as part of the Take it Further challenge run on the internet by Sharon B in Australia. Each month you are given a concept and a colour scheme, you can work from either or both. This months concept was :
Do you ever notice the little things, the small moments, the details in life? This months challenge is to do just that, pay attention to the tiny details. Sometimes the small things become emblematic for something larger.
The inspiration for this was a photo of a butterfly taken last year, more details here if you are interested.
This is a quiltie, 5 inch square made for the Unlimited Textiles internet swap group and finished on Tuesday, again we have a concept or word to work with, this months word being Egypt. As you can see it is a winged scarab, embroidered , painted and quilted.

Your fairy turned out wonderfully. I love your little scarab, he has such a cute expression. He reminds me of Wally from the Dilbert books.
