Woo hoo! I got the starfish & beads done! What a beautiful piece to complete for my final finish of 2015. A Happy New Year indeed! Thanks again to Diane Herrmann for a great class.Note: Gifted to Fred R, our financial advisor, of many years upon his retirement to Florida. I can’t find a photo of it framed. We presented it to him and Margo at his retirement party (2016?).

For a 5-hour class, it may not look like I got much done (Hubby, Is that it?). But, I got half the base row done, only did a little of row 2 to learn the blending technique (you can see just a touch of light blue), started the eyelets, and practiced the bullion for the starfish  (in the top extra area).

It should move along once I get the base row completed. The random eyelets are fun too.

And, didn’t Trish make wonderful matching project bags for the project!
