I like the looks of that bowsock Frank.  The contrast in colors of beige and dark brown is a nice contrast.  Somebody is going to be a happy person when they receive this as a gift.   ;)

That's very cool.  I need to try beadwork sometime, but I don't think I could get myself to sit still long enough.
