Fatema says - Since my favourite festival is "Ganesh/Ganpati utsav "-My Challenge piece is my very own and immensely popular creation-This palm sized  beaded idol of Lord Ganesha.I look forward to this 11 day festival break usually taking place in August/September.During this period, the ganpati idol is brought home or to public pandals and it is followed by festivities.Hundreds of ganesha idols ranging from tiny homemade ones to gigantic ones are ceremoniously welcomed into homes and pandals.Idols are immersed in water to chants of "Ganpati Bappa Morya,Pudchya Varshi Lavkar Ya"(Come back soon next year!)to mark the end of the festival.

This festival is one of the most important festivals of Maharashtra,India and is celebrated with great zeal and fervour!

Audrey

Audrey wrote - My entry for festive fun challenge it's my design using craw raw peyote and herringbone stitches.  I just love  celebrating the Christian festivals especially Christmas and Easter I love sparkle so I have combined these two things the sparkle of Christmas the cross at Easter.  The cross comes off the necklace and makes a Christmas tree sparkly decoration, back on for a Easter celebration necklace. So here it is Rejoice necklace.
