Bluebirds and more


Mom began embroider on six panels meant to be put together for a baby blanket.  She began the first one and didn't finish.  I finished it yesterday.  We're going to offer them individually or someone can buy the set and put together the blanket if they're willing to wait for me to finish the other five.





This is a wristband with a Celtic knotwork pattern burned into the leather


Why is this sideways? - it is a wooden cross with silver, gold, bronze and pewter seed beads inlaid

Click on the photo of this one, guys.  it's hard to tell the details. This is the Hebrew alphabet - the Aleph-Bet, in beadwork mounted on balsa wood and then mounted an varying lengths of dowel to put each on at different heights in random order. The colors were chosen at random with what beads I had in my boxes last year inbetween renovating the house in my exhaustion.  

This is a one of a kind piece. 

I'll post more pieces that we've worked on tomorrow
