In the not too distant past, it was revealed in one of my online groups that one of our members was battling cancer. I felt compelled to bead a doll for her - if for nothing else - to maybe provide some smiles as she went through treatment. I wasn't the only one that had that idea. Another group member (Alexia) and I decided we would bead a doll together.
Alexia creates beautiful beaded faces. She started the doll by adding this wonderful beaded face and some embellishments. She then sent the doll and the beads she had been using to me. I added a few beads from my stash and continued working on her until the doll felt complete.
This doll turned out to be larger (8" tall) than what I work on most of the time. It was challenging to me, but refreshing at the same time. I don't know that I have ever worked with this many colors at once - what fun!
