Here is the beaded upper right wing. I won't be posting the left wing and you'll see the butterfly again later on down the road. So that I have something to post I'll work on the background some and finish the left wing on the side. I still haven't decided what to do about the body. Any ideas will be considered!

It's LOVELY! I really love how the delicate veining turned out and the added little bugle beads were the perfect touch.
ReplyDeleteMy suggestion for the body -- silk chenille with goldwork "stripes" -- and how about wired antennae...you might be able to use some of that silk-covered purl for that.
I also like how you cut out a white template so our eye only sees the wing outline...I'm going to have to borrow that one! Have a beautiful day, Susan
Unique and very beautiful. Love it.
