I realise that it is a week since my last post which is unusual but I have been trying to play catch up with some beading which doesn't produce such speedy results as making cards. I spotted this necklace in an issue of Bead magazine before Christmas and decided I really had to make it. It was certainly very labour intensive and I still have a beaded clasp to make but thought I'd better post a picture of something before anyone thought I'd left the planet!! As well as getting on with this I've produced an intricate bracelet from a somewhat complicated pattern which I was given by a friend - this is also awaiting a fastening and I will take a photograph of that when it is completed.
Val this is stunning...beautiful colours and just love the flower. You really are a talented lady..

gorgeous Val, love the flower! You have a lot of patience doing that - and if the bracelet is 'intricate' ................
ReplyDeleteVery fine indeed - I'm not surprised this has taken a while but it's well worth it for the results.

Absolutely gorgeous Val. I really envy your patience and ability with this intricate beading - still it wouldn't be right if we were all gifted in the same areas. Looking forward to seeing the bracelet.
