Beaded figure update, fresh bread

While it's cool enough to run the stove for long enough, I baked bread. Wholewheat, sprinkle of seasalt on top.



Very nice crumb.



Baker's sample, warm, with Irish butter. 


And I've been moving along with the beading. Still more to go before I think hair.

The gaps you see are the next to work on.

I'm having various ideas about the body and dressing it. Plenty of fun to come.

And here's today's mail, from Goats Magosh

The sparkly dark roving might be involved in hair. Or skirt. We'll see.

Tomorrow will feature jigsaw puzzles, with any luck. Back then.

  3. I can tell you're having a grand time with beads and her personality is definitely taking shape. I've only ever made one doll with beads (at least that I can remember doing). If you're interested, you can see her/him here....https://magpiesmumblings.blogspot.com/2015/08/continuing-2007-look-back.html
