Yet another ring

After a fun week of lie-ins and what not but it's back to college and jewellery class tonight. Had a very fun time, moving onto silver next week!
How exciting!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Had a fun little afternoon making some more earrings - festive themed holly ones this time!












All hand made out of a combination of silk twill and silk organza ready for your next festive occasion.

The Metamorphosis of Nature

Well I've finally finished making my neckpiece! It was very exciting and I don't quite know what to do with myself now (well, I do, there's evaluations and dissertations to do but they're not quite as exciting)


The feather, leaf and flower sections are all available separately as well as together.

Rings and Bracelets and things...

Been having a fun time in my jewellery class, we made jump rings and I had quite a few so I turned them into a bracelet...
And I had a bit of spare time and thought I'd make my own little Indigo and Gold ring

Fuchsia-Jay

Had a busy morning printing the rest of my petals to turn into flowers, hopefully I should have enough cos I'm looking forward to a rest from printing and having normal coloured hands!
I did have a bit of time free at the end of the day to play with some very nice silks I'd dyed and made some Fuchsia's but they were coloured like a blue jay...





















The big one is for my neckpiece and I got so excited after I'd made it I had to make some little ones for earrings!

Over half way now...

Got my leaf bit finished! How exciting, I'm more than half way finished now which makes it even more exciting.
























Layered with the feathers too...

























Next week is flower week, this will get finished!

Lots of Leaves!

Fiiiiiiinallly finished embroidering all my leaves! It took me days and got a few funny looks from the other people at bingo when I was sat there with all my leaves but they're almost ready to be sewn together tomorrow, just got my water soluble ones drying...

More rings

Been a busy day! Embroidered what feels like a million leaves and still have some to finish. I'll show you the pics when it's all done but you'll just have to wait for now...
I do, however, have pics from my jewellery class where I was class swot and made 2 rings...
There's not actually a lot of difference in size but the smaller one will fit on my ring finger quite nicely whereas the bigger one is miles too big for even my thumb!
