Grey Skies



  
Grey Skies.  Bracelet of impression jasper, seed beads, Swarovski crystals and ultra-suede, 2009.

This was the first bead embroidery piece I ever attempted, and it's still one of my favorites.  Blue, grey, bronze, brown and green are probably my favorite colors to work with, so I absolutely flipped when I saw these impression jasper cabs.  The seed beads were selected to match and/or contrast with each individual cab to varying degrees.  The embroidery & assembly techniques are those of the amazing Sherry Serafini.  She has published two books of her own, and her projects regularly appear in Beadwork magazine.
