2007 Bead Journal Project: Finished? Suggestions welcome.

About the 2007 Bead Journal Project

We are 241 women and 1 man who are dedicated and committed to creating 12 bead journal pages, one per month, for a year, starting June 1, 2007. We live in 13 different countries, including 37 states in the USA. Our primary goal during this process, is to stretch our creative and technical limits. The BJP is all about visual journaling using any media and techniques, as long as it includes beading. We are free to structure our bead journal pages any way we want, as long as all 12 are the same size. Through this blog, we intend to support each other in process, techniques and design. Until September 1, 2007, we will not post pictures of our finished journal pages. Many of us have our own blogs or websites (links below) where we may post pictures sooner.

Hi everyone. I've fallen a little behind on the project the last few weeks (Life keeps interfering with beading time, imagine!) However, today I this far on my third page, "Dance"

If anyone has suggestions, I'd be glad to hear them. I'm treating this project, at times, as a kind of extended doodling session - and I'm beading in the same way that I might start cartooning or drawing on a pad of paper. In this case, I don't know if the doodles should be more connected somehow.

Hope you're all doing splendidly - beading and enjoying summer.
