Wearable Art Jewellery - a New design

Another piece of wearable art in the making

I started with choosing the colours and the main feature

The yarns I selected were caramel slubbed cotton, cream silk yarn and stone silk and wool. I wrapped white cotton jersey strips with the cream and stone yarns

A rough sketch of my design idea

This beautiful fossil stone pendant was the featured element and I covered aluminum wire with the caramel slubbed cotton to attach it to the main necklace and for some decoration.

So far so good but it has taken hours to get this far!

Now you will have to be patient, I will blog the finished necklace as soon as it 'comes off the drawing board'

Autumn Colours...My August Garden

I have been lead astray these past few weeks...visiting garden centers....They draw me like a magnet and at the moment there are many excellent bargins!
So this is my new autumn colours collection  !

 

 

 

 

 

Now to find spaces for them and hope the winter is a kind one!
