I added Snowflake Obsidian semi-precious beads as I like that bit of extra weight to the earrings. They look slightly asymmetrical but it's just the angle they were on when I took the photo.
I like how they've turned out and will probably make a couple more pairs in different colours.
I also used Jess's Messy Jess-y again to make Birgit Phelps's Sweetheart. This is a great little pattern but if I was to make it again I maybe would try it without the two uppermost rings to give it more curve at the top... and maybe shorten the side chains just a little? Oh, but I'm fussing. It's a lovely heart.
Best wishes,
Great earrings and beautiful heart!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's very nice thread on your heart. Nice earrings, too! I like the dangly bead.........
ReplyDeleteI love the heart!
ReplyDeleteI was just trying to find a pattern for another new thread,a messy Chilled-like, because of the gray, it turned out with less light blue than Chilled, but still very pretty. (I'll send you a pic)
Anyway, I think I will try this heart out to make a sample! It's so cute!!
Lovely, both the earrings and heart! Love Jess's HDT colours.

I love the earrings, i think that it would be really cool to make more pairs in different colours. :) I also think that your heart is really cute, I really like how the colours work with the pattern.
ReplyDeleteLovely earrings, I think that little pattern has come from your bookmark corners, they make a gorgeous pair of earrings to go out in.
ReplyDeleteLovely heart and gorgeous colour.

Hi Margaret,
ReplyDeleteWell, it's hardly a "pattern", I just put four trefoils together and there you go: earrings!
I just love how you can whip up some earrings so quickly. I am too pokey, or just can't concentrate long enough to get a pair of earrings done in one sitting. Is that weird? And Birgit Phelps Sweetheart is one of my favorite patterns - it looks wonderful in "Messy-Jessy" :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful earrings am not surprised you'll be whipping ups few more pairs in different colours. I like the heart but I can see we're you're coming from with the proposed changes.
ReplyDeleteDid you get my email the other week in regards to the messages you'd left on my blog and papillon?
