These blue stones are Sodalite. Nice blue that goes with just about anything!

These necklaces are long - 36-37". They can be slipped over your head or wound twice as shown. Liking the chucks of stones! The green stones are olive turquoise and the small black stones are hematite. Silver is sterling and Bali.

Well, I'm building my inventory of scarves. Here's a couple of new ones.

S2888


Normally I try on the cáchos to make sure they set well on the shoulders. With this design, I discovered a new way of wearing it! In reverse - almost Hepburn-like.

S2890


I found these great buttons! They're made of polymer and are from Germany. Lightweight and really adds something to the garment!

I did a slight variation to this design. The fabric was pole-wrapped. This is a shibori technique called arashi (lightening). I applied paste that takes color away. Very fun process, because you never know what color will stay!
