The next picture is Saturday's progression and the third is the finished results. I used a no. 20 thread with a sparkly filament added and tiny seed beads for the fins and tail. The eye is a slightly larger bead.

Gone Fishing!!
I was also asked by the same lady to make her three pairs of fish earrings. I immediately thought of Martha Ess's dear little fish in New Critters on the Block but found that once made it was too big for an earring. Then I decided that I was just being downright lazy and that I should make one of my own. The first picture below is the progression of how the fish developed on Friday (after the booties were finished!).

I like the fishy with top ring fin with the picot bent it reminds me of a dolphin. Aww soo cute.
The fishies are so cute!!! They kinda remind me of the Betas. My mom love Betas.
This is a design that can have tons of variations. Really cool!
