Embroidered Pendants

 

I have been working on embroidered pendants for our Dry Gulch jewelry line.  I love using different ribbons, beads and fibers in my work.  The hand dyed threads are perfect for shabby chic pieces.

 

I started with tea dyed fabrics and added beautiful threads and ribbons from my stash.  The pretty Czech beads are from Dry Gulch and I love the painted bird charm.

 

To finish off the edges, I used rayon thread to whip stitch all the way around.  A piece of silk ribbon makes the hanger.

 

For this one, I added a seed bead cluster to the center of the Czech glass flower and stitched around with hand dyed pearl cotton thread.  These pretty little pendants paired with our sparkly crystals will make great necklaces.
