I was delighted to receive the news that my 'Symphonie de Tulipes' won the popular vote in the Dutch Spiral challenge on the Beading Forum.
*chuffed*
This doesn't mean it is the best creation (how can there be a 'best' when each piece is beautiful and unique in it's own right?), nor the most technically challenging or well-crafted, nor the best suited to the theme. It just means that my peers like my work. One of those feel-good moments, to be sure.
Also, I passed my Boat Licence test this morning. So you can now address me as 'Skipper'. Heh ;-)

Now, if only there were a way to combine beading and boating...
