However -- 200 people still makes for an impressive map! Click on it to see it enlarged.
There are 16 countries (including some new ones, like Bahrain) and 41 states represented. The participants are from all types of beading styles -- metal, lampwork, stringing, beadweaving, etc. -- and I think only one package may have been waylaid (which is a record).
Please join us on Saturday to see what these talented people made with the beads they received!

It always amazes me how you put this all together, Lori! This is another impressive Bead Blog Soup Party. I will be looking forward to seeing all the beautiful creations! I love blog hopping this party...so much fun!
That is one impressive map Lori! I can't wait to make like a bunny and hop, hop, hop. And, I agree with Alice - if women ruled the world...maybe we should all mount a coo.
Lori, the map is really cool! Great way to "see" the participants! And kudos to Rick if he helped you with it!
That map is awesome. Your party has connected us all in a way that makes the world seem a bit smaller. Way cool!
I am working on my blog post and can't wait to post it. I think I will probably post at 1 minute after midnight!
