Quoth the Raven "Nevermore" I was a little tempted to incorporate a raven somewhere, but that would have been against the fan wall rules. Stupid rule maker, such a spoilsport

Wow that's pretty amazing Cat! I love the Donald Duck one you posted as well! How long does it take to do them?

Thank you, Togan! To loom them and re-weave the threads usually takes me around 5 to 6 hours if I don't have to rip out rows after I finished looming. The pattern itself can take an hour (that's rare) or much longer after I find the right picture, edited it, put it in BeadTool 4, transferred it and cleaned it up. Sometimes it takes me many attempts to get it right the way I want it. If you are interested in seeing them all, they are on my blog with a description of the designing process. catswire.blogspot.com/p/fan-wall.html

What are the fan wall rules?

The first rule of the fan wall is: "There is no fan wall." Nah, the rules are portrait without embellishment, as close as possible to the original picture (although I took off a finger once that hid the mouth), always the exact same size, always the same eight colors

How did I miss this! Oh, I know. I was busy with the 4th of July holiday. Love it, Cat. Every time I think you've topped yourself, you top yourself again! A raven might be kind of cool, but you're the boss! Dawn

Thank you, Dawn! I'm working on an idea in my head, but I'm not quite there yet ... *walking off like a boss*
