First three pieces completed of my Inspired by Fabric series

I've completed the first three pieces of a series inspired by a shirt of my father circa 1970s.  I'm very pleased with them.  And all those beads that I made - I ended up making even more last night because the ratio of beads was terribly off compared to what I needed.  I also created a few more pendants so there are more to come.  :)

  1. They are great. I particularly like the middle one (I'm not big on brown;) Can't believe you had to make more beads. Look forward to seeing the rest.

  4. They are all wonderful Polly. You did such a good job capturing the design on the shirt. I love brown and blue together.

  6. Thank you for sharing this amazing creative journey with us all. You are so right--the pieces are beautiful and much better than the shirt would have given us any way to predict.
