What's best about it is that I don't think anymore that I'm insane!  |

I think I'm going to be late with my challenge piece. My sister is coming (unexpectedly) to visit this weekend and I just don't see myself having time to get it done. I plan to get it posted next week though. Dawn |

The supplies I found have a small "problem" which means I have to figure out how to best use them. I hope to get to it tomorrow, though.
I wanted to start today, but haven't been feeling well enough since last night and I already messed up the custom order and have to start over again because I think I either counted wrong or whatever. As the threads are already sewn in, it would probably take longer to open the ends up again than to try again. A big eyeroll.

Ugh, sorry Cat. Feel better soon! Take your time, I'm pretty sure I won't make the submission deadline due to sister's visit. Dawn |

Ha! That so aggravating when beads are hiding in plain sight. I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what’s going on with my missing beads (and other things). I haven’t found mine, but I’m on a different track now. I’ve had to order some copper crimp beads and jump rings. I’m still planning to make it by the end of the month. 😄
I hope you feel better, Cat!

Thank you for your good wishes, you know how it is with me, going up and down, up and down.
As the earrings are done now, I hope to get to my challenge piece today!

Getting there ... I might just make the deadline (although I know I don't have to, it brings me satisfaction).

Oh yeah, all finished. Except for a picture which I can't take before der Dekan releases my foot he's sleeping on.

He just got up to attack Gundel, so off I go! It's a bit late, but I'll try!

Ta-daaaaa! Look what I brought back from harvesting! I know it looks just like one of my baskets, but with the pumpkin not being a bead, but a charm it was a little more difficult to work out.  |

I absolutely love everything about it, Cat! It's charming, sweet, whimsical and so cute! The green vines are the perfect touch to make this creation complete. How big is it? I'm guessing it's no more than 1.5 inches/38 mm. Oh, and congratulations for finishing it and posting before tomorrow's deadline! Dawn |

Thank you, Dawn!
He has a little dark green needle felt cushion to sit on in the basket, so he wouldn't dangle in the empty basket.
It's a little over 1 inch without the jump ring bail.

That is adorable, Cat! He looks so happy all nestled in his basket. And Congrats on being the only one to finish by the deadline. I’d have made it except for the lack copper findings. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised I was out since copper us my favorite. 😜
