| 2006 - March Meeting Silent Auction Beads - Page 1 | |
| Our annual Silent Auction - with our own best beads as well as amazing beads donated by our visiting Instructors. So much fun; so much bidding strategies; so much loveliness - we have a few pictures at the end of members looking and bidding but first the beads. We tried to photograph as many as possible but consistency with light and focus is difficult at a meeting so not all of the photos came out. We've also tried to identify as many beads as possible - but please identify those we missed by sending the Web Mama a note. | |

this wonderful figure - we think it is boro and apologize for cutting

shades by Susie Hammond McKee. This frog is pondering the state
of the environment.

focal piece by itself.
