    Had to share this neat "quilty" project done in San Francisco. I know the artist's parents and grandparents, and while it's not a fabric quilt, the fact that this mural is all beads is spectacular. Link is to the pics of the process on my Facebook page. Hope you enjoy looking at these. :)

    That is wonderful. I don't know if I would want something I spent that much time on outside though. I thought the "framing" was interesting. I am guessing it was a piece of polished metal but my mind went to smaller sizes mounted on those mirror tiles and hung on a wall. :-)

    Did it say on one of the closeups that the artist was blind? Wow!
