Well, here I am at 18 hours - almost on the dot! I have finished the center "bib" part of my embroidered necklace and now the lizard has a permanent home. I love the way the colors flow into each other. It's a bit of a gamble to try to use this many colors on one piece but I really am pleased with it :) Now, my next decision: fringe?? Also: What type of neck "strap" do I want this piece to have? And finally: What should I call this piece? (I'm thinking about calling it "Chameleon") These are questions I might have to sleep on for a while. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this peek into the process.
I like the fringe idea. I might end them with pressed glass leaves, to go along with the chameleon theme.
ReplyDeleteI tend to go with double spiral rope if I can't think of anything else for straps.
It's looking lovely! I can't wait to see it finished
What a pleasure to view your blog, Cindy! Your work is utterly divine and such an inspiration. I love your latest work in progress, it is so beautiful. And I can't wait to see it finished! No pressure though ;) hehe I'm sure however you decide to finish it, it will be perfect!
ReplyDeleteHappy beading,
Belinda :)
Cindy ... I love watching the progress of this piece, and right now it's looking spectacular. I love all those colours together. Your lizard looks very comfortable sitting there. :)
ReplyDeleteHow big is the bib part Cindy?
Oh, and I love Charmeleon as a name for this piece. Can't wait for the next installment.
cheers

Mmmm, yummy! Love it, Cindy!
