I have finished this square for CQJP13 but just had to share it with you. Instead of a ciggie I used this peacock I made first. Then I thought oh my the rest of the block will have to shine to go with the peacock. I tried to hold down the beads and embellies as not to outshine the birdie. It is 9x9 from edge to edge and what maybe a ton of beads? It was hard not to put more.
The shine of the sequins almost gets us and I didn't do much to the body it looked ugly so just used a pen . I did do his wings though. It was fun and the button area was just nude without beads.
I just cannot get enough of CQing that is just simple as that. Gets in your blood doesn't it?
There you go what is going on in my world today.
XOXO
