November is just about over. I've had my piece finished for a few days but just got around to photographing it. You can see it here:
November is always my lowest month emotionally...lack of light, end of year, reminders of loss. My dear friend Jill is still hanging in there with the help of her devoted family and hospice. Every day for her is a gift, and I try to remember that I shouldn't wish my time away to get to a month I like better. It is a good day today.
Join BJP 2010!!!!
Wanted!

About the Bead Journal Project
The brain child of Robin Atkins, the first Bead Journal Project, which began in June of 2007, included 241 women and 1 man who were dedicated and committed to creating 12 bead journal pages, one per month, for a year.
The BJP is all about visual journaling using any media and techniques, providing it includes some beading. We are free to structure our bead journal pages any way we want, as long as all 12 are the same size.
The current years' Bead Journal Project runs from September, 2008 through August, 2009. This blog is a means by which we may support each other in process, techniques and design. Participants (many with links to their personal blogs or websites) are listed below.

Bead Journal Project Information
Visit the Bead Journal Project website! Visit the 2008 BJP member pages, a gallery of completed work by members who have finished 8 or more pages during the first year of the project.
The 2008-09 BJP, starts with September and continues through August of 09. Guidelines for participation may be found here. To be an official member and to post to this blog, you must have registered prior to August 15, 2008.
We have our own BJP Flickr group, where we can post pictures of our work. This is a good way for members who do not have a personal blog to post pictures. Also, you can see many BJP pieces by different members in one place. You must "join" Flickr to post your pictures.

You've captured the whole end-of-autumn feeling in your piece. I love the use of leaf beads. Nice journal entry!

Thank you for expressing this wise thought so well... It IS a good day today! Robin A.
This is such a wonderful piece of component work. I love how all three pieces have a flow with the bead work. I bet they'll all look stunning when you get done.
