Finshed!

I beaded all of the background vee shapes and this one is ready to mail!  I am finishing up the stitch guide and it will be available shortly.

Finished the Eye

The eye of the feather is all beaded! 

More than half!

At one point there were nine threaded needles as I worked down the beading.

Not quite half

There are a lot of beads in the eye!

Beading and Spaghetti

I am going to bead the entire eye of the Peacock feather.  They colors change often so I have several threaded needles going at once.

Final Box

The final left corner box is done.  On to the center eye of the feather.

Center Band

The bottom center band is almost all done....just a bit on the bottom left to go.

Bottom Right Corner

The bottom right corner boxes are done!

All the barbs

I finished the rest of the tips so all of the barbs on the feather are done.

Bottom borders

I have started the bottom border.   The lines across the top of the two boxes are done as are the

first set of boxes on the right.

Green Tips

I have started the green tips of the barbs.

Barbs

All of the black portion of the barbs is stitched!

The Background!

I finished all of the background!  I am going to work on all the feather barbs next!

The Quill

The Quill is now finished as is more background!

Close barbs

The black area around the eye of the feather is called close barbs as they are not the single ones out towards the edges.  I have been working on the background too.

Background and borders

I have started the background and down the side borders.

All across the top

I finished all of the boxes across the top!

Progress

I am more than half way across the boxes and have added in more background too.

Continuing

I did some more of the boxes and have also started on the background stitch.

Getting faster

I am getting a little faster at the pattern for these!
