Spring Jewelry and a sweater

I love turquoise...It's so earthy...This particular piece is hand chained and the turquoise is green with some rusty brown. The center piece is honey amber with silver end caps from Nepal...
The design on the end caps is of clouds...

This is a Chinese Rhodonite bracelet. The Chinese Rhodonite is a lovely color combination of pink and green with a little bit of charcoal smudged here and there...

More turquoise, but these are nice round beads, hand chained and made into a set

I love the colors in this set. Some blue, blue green, green and earthy brown

I put another pair of pineapple quartz earrings together too.

And i finished another sweater. I think i am getting better at reading the patterns and making the pieces for the sweater, but i do need more practice in seaming....There is never a shortage of new things to learn! This is in size 2 toddler...I hope it fits Lola ... More dolls coming up!

Hi CM! I DO love pink! ;) Thanks for the post. Are you knitting yet? How is the painting going? I am amazed you have time for that with all that is going on my friend.
Thank you Paula. Isn't turquoise beautiful? I love the mix of earthy colors...Some of those beads look like little earth globes.
