Here's my first 3D RAW (right angle weave) necklace.
The Green Brecciated Jasper cabochon is embellished with brick stitched leaves and Czech pressed glass flowers.
I learnt how to make the 3D rope from Pivoine's tutorial and the 3D RAW cabochon's bezel from Coco's (Bagousenfollie) tutorial.

Beaded Beads Game.
The Hendaia bead (the first one from the end of the longer rope) is a design by Cloclotiti and the Cedra bead (the second one from the end of the longer rope) is a design by Pencio.
I wanted to make something different than just stringing the beads, so I started playing around with twisted herringbone ropes and also made a baby version of the Hendaia and Cedra beads.

Dolls and Bears
Misty is a little doll, measuring only 4 and 1/2 inches from the bottom pearl to the top of her head.
Most of the beadwork is done with size 15/0 Japanese seed beads, with a few size 11/0 Japanese and Czech seed beads.
Czech pressed glass flowers and fresh water pearls.
I gave a little make up to a polymer clay face that I got in a swap with a friend (Thanks, Carol! :-) ).
For the body I used a pretty lilac plumeria Hawaiian fabric.
