My new passion....

I took a terrific class in silk hand-knotting and now I'm hooked! This technique is such a fabulous way to string together pearls, gemstones, or your favorite mix of assorted beads. The free flowing movement of the finished strand is so classic and elegant. There is just something about the delicate feel of a hand-knotted piece as it coils up in the palm of your hand.

You can find my first one-of-a-kind design called "gems and pearls necklace" on my gallery page.
