Wire Lace pendant and Donut necklace























































Hi All - here's a pic of me looking somewhat wind blown and cold in Auckland New Zealand a few weeks ago in Mid April - the next pic shows my "Donut" pendant (the instructions/pattern were in the UK "Stitch" Magazine a few months ago) and as there were a couple of "foam" rings "kicking" about near my computer (from the centre of a CD stack!!!) I used that as my "base" - it was covered with a thin torn strip of calico then a torn strip of red cotton material- beads were threaded onto wire and wrapped around too then I made a bead "chain" on which to hang it! and of course earrings to match :-) as you can see in the 3rd pic - the last pic is one of my designs (actually an earring) made up into a pendant and it now resides in Auckland at my friend Lynnette's house (Hi Lynnette :-D!!) - a little gift for her for "putting up with me " LOL! :-D more pics to come nut with my UK trip looming in less than 4 weeks not sure how much time I will have to pop blog entries on here - no peace for the wicked bwahahahahahaa :-)

I am home again

Hi All
I got back from New Zealand a week ago Wednesday - I had a fabulous time and took lots of photo's but this week I have been soooo busy in the studio and out and about at various meetings I haven't had time to load them etc - I don't have time now as DH has gone to collect Pizza's so - nearly dinner time ... Hope to get organised soon though... so stay tuned :-)
