300 and counting...


Back in late 2009 when I began my blog I never thought that I'd still be going and that I would actually put 300 posts on line.  Whew!!!


You know what keeps me going?  You do!!  Each of you who read and comment; those of you who have become dear friends; the sharing of the art that you do and the techniques we all use - priceless!



When I began this blog I was heavily involved in beading and actually began it in conjunction with my enrollment in the Beaded Journal Project.  Soooo, how about a big giveaway of three beaded items from what seems like so long ago?

 "Man in the Moon" is a beaded three-dimensional piece which comes with a stand from which to hang him.  "Sonata" is another three-dimensional piece standing on her own stand.  "Twilight Path" is an encrusted bead stitchery which is mounted in a metal frame.

Please leave a comment below - this give-away is open to one and all - even if you've won a giveaway before feel free to throw your name in the hat!   Three names will be drawn Sunday the 19th with winners announced on August 20th.   Meanwhile thanks to all of you who have made this art journey so much fun.

    Love the dolls but don't include my name...I would feel guilty if I won another beautiful piece from you!

  4. "Twilight Path" is the piece I had a hard time passing up when I bought another bead embroidery from you! Your beaded dolls are treasures too - I love the purples in "Sonata". Who wouldn't want to win any of these?

  6. The BJP is why I started MY blog too. The friendships I have made through it are important to me. I have enjoyed seeing your diverse talents and our comment exchanges more than you would guess.

  7. Me too, another BJP gal with the rest of you...what a long way we have all come! Like Penny B. said, "...I would feel guilty," and I would, but SO WHUT?!?! Toss me name in the hat, pleez. I knew I had to participate when I saw 'Twilight Path' and later on I will explain why...

    Huge CONGRATS on 300 ~ may you go on, and ON!

  14. Oh dear, how do I enter without feeling guilty for already having one of your lovely punched pieces? That's it! I don't have one of your beaded pieces yet! No guilt!
    You are a peach to be offering such a generous giveaway, Penny. BJP is where I started beading too!
