The idea for my necklace came when I laid my eyes on LeAnn's bird and branch ... I said to myself, "I need dat!" The ideas for "Wings of a Dove" was borne and uses these sweet littles objects as the focal point of a necklace with tea-dyed, hemstitched linen. The hemstitching provides the perfect ladderwork for the weaving of ribbons.
Sometimes I think we believe we have to tea-dye a whole bunch of fabric at one time. In this case, however, I simply brewed a really strong cup of tea!
Look at the generous giveaway by LeAnn ...

A beautiful piece! I love the sweet bird house and the dyed linen.
ReplyDeleteI'm headed over now to check out LeAnn's post.
I love this piece. And I'm really enjoying the Book Tour. I'm a follower of your blog also.
ReplyDeleteIn my mind I started listing the components, from above, I loved the most and before I knew it I had named them ALL! Can't pick a favorite...hop'n over to LeAnn's blog.
ReplyDeleteLove'n your book Barbara. Enjoy your day!
Oh my! The entire birdhouse pendant/necklace is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI left a review. I have the book on my Nook and it is fantastic to have it in that format. I was worried it would ruin the "feel" of a book but I can have it near my workspace and it's open to the page I need.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are fantastic and the Wings of a Dove is my favorite piece in the whole book!
Shannon
You and LeAnn never cease to amaze me! The piece is so whimsical with a modern twist. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe pendant with your birdhouse and the lovely porcelain bird and bronze branch from LeAnn are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI am a follower of your blog and have become a follower of all the contributors. It has been fun to meet some who are new and to follow publicly some who I have been quietly visiting for some time.
Thanks for all the wonderful giveaways, and for such a delightful book!
This book tour is a whirl wind of fantastic artists!! I'm loving it!
ReplyDeleteI am enamored with the idea of enameling. I hope someday to be able to learn how. Unfortunately, since I have a toddler and one on the way, my jewelry making is a bit on hold, but I am following your blog so I can try this technique eventually. How do I enter to win that awesome necklace?
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty necklace! Way cool linen and beautiful centerpiece!! I love the little bird house-have these been in your shop? Everything seems so new to me today. (Must be my new floor soap.) This is the first time I've seen LeAnn's branch too!!!!Oh well LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY:)
ReplyDeleteOh, that is the cutest bird! Heading over now to her blog. Thanks so much for this wonderful tour!
ReplyDeleteI left a review on Amazon tonight. I have it on my Kindle and I love how easy it is to have it right smack where I need it, no pages flipping on my if my fan is blowing (I get hot when the creative juices are bubbling... okay... I could actually put that so many ways and get in so much trouble... yeah, time to move on, eh?)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the next stop in the virtual tour. It's so fun to see what's going on and I've found so many new blogs to follow! Exciting!
