Bead on - 24,000 - 17-23 March

This work aims to mark 24,000 individuals - Indian Christians who were physically attacked in the last year because of their faith. 

I am done with the 9th set of nine. I have started a different arrangement of rows encircling the set of nine squares. But only one day of it has been done. 6,560 people have been noted.

I am doing this project because I wanted to see just how many 24,000 actually is. Already, the mind boggles to think of each bead already stitched on!
I am stitching 80 beads each day for 300 days - 10 beads in each small square eight times.

Hoping these photos are not too fuzzy. Maybe it is just in the composition section of blogger?
