    These are from my collection of favorites done in either crazy patch, beadwork, embroidery, cross stitch, post cards, landscapes, portraits or odd sized shaped minis which I love. None of these were done by me. They are just my collection of favorites.

    However, I hope to do some similar type work and get "N2" my huge collection of sequins, buttons, laces, pearls, ribbons, flowers, silks/satins, beads, etc. Hope you are inspired like I am. Enjoy!

    Love this round shaped one
