The only hitch I had was when I broke a bead as I forced the needle through it one too many times. Luckily, it was right near the clasp and it's not visible in the design or I'd have had a bit of unpicking to do!
Anyway, here is the finished necklace and the dress it was made for.
The dress is a mass of swirling colour. As I said, yellow, brown and orange are colours that I don't feel super confident in, but with the pinks and blues swirling amongst the autumn palette I think I can pull it off.
I'm not sure about the necklace though. When I bought it, the shell pendant looked brown inside the packaging but in the daylight it is as black as black can be. I had picked this pendant from amongst all the others because it looked brown.... just like the dark brown in the dress.
It's not that they look bad together, but I just think I can find something that works with it better so I'll keep looking until I'm happy with what I find.
'Til next time.....
