This is my first design in RPL. I also wanted to experiment with add beads. It is a small motif working in #20 and #40 thread. I think the beads are a size 9. There is 1 larger bead, but I can't recall the size. I call it 'Hidden Owl Motif' because when I designed it on paper, it just look like a interesting design, but after finishing it (and because of the needlelace stitches I used), I found it to look like an owl! Can you see it too?

I made this motif agani to experiment with beads. I love the color. This is my 2nd RPL design. It is a pocket motif.
I will find the designer's name and add it to this caption. I need to look for the magazine. The magazine is Piecework Jan/Feb 2001. The designer is Ioana Bodrojan. Check out the link to see the issue. http://www.interweave.com/needle/piecework_magazine/back_issues/01-01.asp
