Excited about starting my January piece!

This is my first Bead Journal experience, and I'm looking forward to using it as a way to stretch myself as a beader. I haven't decided on the format yet for my monthly pieces, but I'm leaning either to a 12 square bead quilt, or to a series of 12 beaded boxes. I just moved to Bern, Switzerland, and so January is a busy month, but I'm itching to get started!
