One of My Ornate Works of Wearable Art

by Patricia C Vener.
(Connecticut USA)

Pink and green, I still have not titled this one!

I wanted to build something around the unakite (stone) beads and at the same time I wanted to experiment with the flat spiral weave.

Very specifically, I wanted to see if I could make it branch.

And of course I wanted to make it a major work of art using other weaves and stitches as well.

I decided to make a faux netting that looks like Renaissance lace.

I worked this necklace in parts and then joined and adapted them on a half display form.

Seed beads, faceted stone beads, Swarovski crystals are all included in this one!

Somewhere I have pictures of the work in progress, but of course I can’t find them now.

Maybe on my tablet… or phone….
