Bead on - 24,000 - 21-27 April

This work acknowledges 24,000 individuals - Indian Christians who were physically attacked in one year because of their faith.

I am stitching 80 beads each day for 300 days - 10 beads in each small square eight times.
Completed the third row encircling the set of Nine squares.*

Day 117...9,360 people have been noted. Just over 1/3 of the way.

*You May have noticed that there are a few needles here and there throughout the beading. This is because (which I now try to do differently) some of the places where I had to start a new thread have had the knots come undone!😱 It seems this thread allows the knots to slip open. SO...I have already rethreaded lost beads for some, and now there are a few more. I have learned to take a few stitches in one place when I start. They get covered by the sequins and the knot is more secure.
You should see me on  my knees looking 👀 for lost beads! Yes, I have plenty to replace them, but somehow there is a bit of honour involved!😅
Don’t let it get the upper hand. 😉
