Since June is my birth month, I wanted this block to be special to me. I had these really cool half faces I though represent the duality of gemini's and just had to use them! I searched all through my fabric and decided on the 'reverse' side of an oriental teal brocade - imagine that! I've shown a small piece of the fabric for you to see. Don't know what to say - all my pieces seem to look the same to me, an organic bubling effect of color and texture. My favorite beads on this piece are the 4 blue ones on the upper left - i'm at a loss for their name, but think it starts with a c??? Lot of fire polish here - and the picot edging is just perfect. Hope you enjoy it as much as i do! You can go to Flickr to see a larger picture at http://www.flickr.com/photos/30235567@N07/3665757898/in/pool-871696@N21

This Gemini wishes you a belated birthday! I love the half-faces and got a big grin out of using the reverse side of a fabric which is one of my favorite ploys, too.

Great interpretation of Gemini. And those half-faces are fascinating.
