Man, oh man this book is super cool! It's by Linda Kopp who was also the editor for Metalworking 101 for Beaders. It's called the Jewelry Design Challenge because all of the designers were sent the same materials to create one piece of jewelry for the book. We could do whatever we wanted with the materials plus add one "wild card" material—this element made the challenge even more fun. I chose fiber/felt. I was really inspired and intrigued on so many variations with the same materials. Here's a little snippet of my piece in the book…that looks way better in the actual book. Shooting on polka-dots…what was I thinking?
I’ve checked this book out at B&N…I loved it, it was added to my list of wants! Your necklace is lovely.
