Ended up beading up under the hair on the neck in the back and down to the lovely polymer clay crescent moon cabochon. Since she/he already had so much going on with the other elements I decided to just keep it pretty simple.
Back
Then there is Leaf that showed up just last week and I've already finished beading on. She won't mail out until March 15th though. The next and last person to bead on her after me is having some hand issues so I tried to get all the fiddley spots that were left to leave a wide open spot for her to bead on.

I ended up adding the leaf on the back right "hand" and simple lines around it, the green beads that continued around the front to wrap around the center focal area. Then going with the fall theme and color request I bocci stitched the bottom both sides with gold and red-orange then wrapped that around to the back to get those fussy bits.
Back
It still didn't seem quite ready to be called done for my part, so I added the yellow AB zipper stitch borders against the bocci and some little gold drops filled in the bottom. I also ended up needing to go back through several of the drops used for her lovely hair as they started coming loose.
I really don't want to send this one on, I'd love to keep her! LOL!
Oh well, I'll just have to make up my own leaf shape form.
Other than that I've been working on an UFO project for one of the beading challenges. I am hoping to get that finished up in the next week or so before sharing the photos. There's been dentist visits and eye doctor appointments and a small wreck involving the youngest with the truck that we've been sorting through. Every one involved with that is just fine, but it's the headache of dealing with the insurances and getting it in to the body shop to be fixed.
Hopefully I'll have more to share with you all soon and get back to more frequent posting!

Oh my, Leaf is so sweet. I would like to be able to create such lovelies as you do!
I love all of your round-robin beading projects! How cool!
You've 'just' been beading? Methinks you've been VERY creative with beads!! Very glad no one was hurt (besides the truck).
You have been a busy girl. These dolls are all great and each one with it's own personality! Glad you have insurance to fix the truck!

Again, stunning round robin dolls! I always love them. Know your feelings navigating the resolution of an accident. It's always unsettling, but not as bad as it could have been, thankfully!
