Thanks for your lovely comment. I have never seen house blessing pieces or your dolls before they are very original. I love your use of symbolism.

- Thanks for lovely comment on my work, That necklace you asked about...it is from the fabric and fibre book. Basically it is 100% wool felt ( i had to buy because my R'A complaint does not allow hard hand work of rubbing etc) I cut out the flowers/leaves. then shrank them...next dyed some silk fabric with silk paints for the band. Then threaded up row size 11 seed beads about 24 inch
Attached the beads and flowers along the silk fabric. The centres of flowers are made with size 6 seed beads
Hope that helps you?
