I'm not really sure why this one took so long to finish! Started it in December and took a month off to make "I Gotta Be Me," but still took more than 100 hours to make. There were a lot of details in this and way more decisions to be made than in the previous three. This mosaic and the next three or four take place outdoors, and then it will be back inside again. I so wish I could share more details but I'm hoping the wait will be worth it! I'm having so much fun putting millefiori every place I can in the designs but with restraint! I don't want it to be TOO millefied :-)I have a small mosaic to make now and then it's off to Chicago for the SAMA conference - can hardly stand the wait!!! So I'll start mosaic #5 at the end of next month. Guess I won't be finishing the book this year..... oh well....

ReplyDeleteHe is pretty cute CB! You are as good at making snowmen as you are at kitties! I can see why he took a long time...lots of detail there!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rebecca and Cynthia! I just realized the last mosaic I finished for the book was last August!! I love having projects in between the book, but at this rate, it will be years before I'm done!
ReplyDeleteLove this little guy...although I'm tired of winter. Your book will be super.
