The trench and pants muslins are still progressing, and there is another project or two that I haven't yet disclosed, hopefully they will surface soon.
In the meantime, I thought I would share a stringing project that I have been meaning to share for a while. I purchased the smokey Quartz faceted beads from Bead Them Up at one of the Craft Shows in 2008 and they have been taunting me ever since.
One of my last classes with my beading teacher was to work on this project, and I used inspiration from a design by Lynne Soto from "Beading with Gemstones" a Beadstyle Special Issue magazine dated 2007.
and it was completed just in time for me to wear with my SWAP outfits
Fingers crossed that the next time you see me it is to share a completed garment!

Lovely to see a close up of the gorgeous necklace from your SWAP. The design is beautiful!
A beautiful necklace and earring set, Sharon!
Your beading is as lovely as your sewing. What lovely jewelery.
How gorgeous. I have jewelry envy. I will have learn to make my own as then I can have the necklaces land where I want them to. Love the colour of your beads. Looks great with your outfit.
Beautiful beads. They will look lovely with so many outfits.
The necklace and earrings are just lovely! You make such wonderful jewellery.
Lovely to make your own jewelry as well as clothes! That is a very pretty suit that should go with lots in your wardrobe!
What a lovely necklace and earrings set! The subtle smoky shade goes so beautifully with your swap colours :)
You look swish. Watch out for beading addiction - I have two ex-sewing friends who are consumed by jewellery making including blowing their own glass beads.
You always pick the perfect colours ! These look very good with your outfit!
I love this set. It's classic and the colour should serve you well. I envy you your patience in making theses beautiful pieces !
