Janet P's Bees, Butterflies, and Beetles Block

Here is a picture of Janet's naked block.  I was the first to work on it.  It's approximately 15 inches in diameter.

And this is a picture of the beetle I put on it.  The model was a picture of a Pink Sand Beetle off the Utah Wildlife site.  I drew it freehand. 





This one is at the same scale as the top picture.  It's after all the work I did on it.




And this is a closer picture of the work I did.  The ladybugs at the top are some kind of seed from around here that has been turned into beads.  I don't know what kind of bug I made up for the conga line, and the butterflies are SRE.  I hope Janet likes it and that the next person who works on it is able to add more to the piece.
