Inspiration turtle bag

 This bag started on day when I received  some abalone cabs and was looking at them.I was stunned at the beauty and thought about what would be the perfect rosette for this. My mind went right to a sea turtle. It was very fitting. Everyone who knows me knows how much I love beading turtles. Turtles really mean something to me. I feel I have learned from them in this lifetime. For one they are so…

I'm gonna have to alter the pattern for the beaded turtle for me to get it to work.

And I already had to alter the shell pattern because I didn't have enough of the second green colour.

The girl who wants the beaded England flag didn't like any of the prizes that were left last week, so I said I could make her something else beaded.

She was all, "TURTLE!"

I was all, "...ookay."

And of course, being me, I've left it off until THE very last possible minute.

And I can't get the blasted pattern to work as it is, so I'm gonna have to make it slightly larger so the legs won't look super deformed. Two weeks ago, I could've done it without any real thinking. This week? NOPE.

It's still gonna look deformed.

This is the pattern, in case anyone's interested.
