But wait! There's more!

Wow, so many beautiful colors! How will they ever pick just one?

That's fun to see. Thanks Leslie! Hope to get some to you soon.

Leslie, those top beads are beautiful but they're not mine. I'd hate to take credit for someone else's hard work. Besides, I owe you another batch right now.

Hopefully the artist will speak up when she/he sees these.

Everyone did some amazing work, thanks for sharing the pics!

Oh crud, Astrid! They were with your card! I had such a pile...

Ok... time to edit a bit...

Well Astrid, the beads that you didn't make sure were pretty!

I agree.

I think they're beautiful. I don't know how you keep up with it all honestly, I'd lose my mind!

I'm sorry that I've been so bogged down lately but I'm finally getting the latest batch of BOC bead pictures taken from my frit challenge. As I get the photos processed I'll post them here as well as on my website. GREAT job, guys!!!

This set is from Patricia Kloetsch and used "She Gathers Rain."

This set was done using "Fall Harvest" and was done by Patricia Kloetsch.

Looking good!

I've seen kids take a very long time to select that one bead. They usually go through them carefully, narrowing down the choice to a select few, sometimes asking mom or dad for input, then pick out that special bead. If you come back months later they will tell you about how they earned each AoC bead. It'll change your outlook on life.

Patty made a set using "Be Wary of the Wildwood." Great job, Patty!!!

Robert, that's so true! I've heard that sometimes the kiddos will even pick out the wonkies or fruglies because that particularly described that treatment or feeling at the time. I'm so thankful that we finally got the program at my hospital!!!

ThatFritGirl · #13 2011-09-24, 8:21pm

Here is a set that Patty made sporting "Peacocks in Full Bloom." Patty, the kiddos are going to love them!!!

PattyK · #14 2011-09-24, 8:27pm

Wow Leslie - you made my beads look so glamorous!

Sure hope the kids like them .. I had a blast making them.

And big thanks to you for sponsoring such a wonderful program!

Patty also tested "Kalera's Romance Blend" for the kiddos....

ThatFritGirl · #16 2011-09-24, 10:19pm

"mocha Dreams" is another frit that Patty tested for me and the kiddos. Incredible work, Patty!

ThatFritGirl · #17 2011-09-24, 10:33pm

Here is a set made with IMJ-CB-046 "Just Berried" tested by Patricia Kloetsch. More beads for the kiddos!!!!

ThatFritGirl · #18 2011-09-24, 10:49pm

Our final installment from Patty Kloetsch uses "Pandora" - IMJ-CB-029 - as a test frit. Patty, thank you for all of your incredibly hard work and all of the time that you put in to these beads!

ThatFritGirl · #19 2011-09-25, 5:15am

Beata tested "Mocha Dreams" for me and got some rocking color from the frit. The kiddos will love playing with these! The bases that she used are listed on my FB page.

Michelle Veizaga sent in a whole ton of beautiful, colorful beads for the kiddos! When I opened the package ans the sun hit the beads it was like looking at a mini-rainbow. Thank you for all of your hard work and invested time, Michelle!!!

ThatFritGirl · #21 2011-09-25, 5:19am

Here are the rest of Michelle's beads, as well as a "family picture."

Terry Henry sent in a bunch of beads, many using glow glass. One really cool Saturn shattered in transit, but her other Saturn survived. Cool work Terry!

She knew that the Saturn probably can't go to a kiddo, but might ba able to be used for one of the other projects.

ThatFritGirl · #23 2011-09-25, 7:27am

And the rest of Terry's beadies....

ThatFritGirl · #24 2011-09-25, 7:28am

And here are my latest frit test beads....

Kim sent in a handfull of really colorful beads for the kiddos as well as three fabulous fish with great big lips! The kids will go wild for those!!!!
