Friday Was Good

Friday was nice and productive. I worked up the final version of the bracelet and got it listed. Then went straight to work on the other pieces to match. The pendant was fairly straight forward. I didn't change it anymore than I had already done for the bracelet really. It is pretty large, but I generally don't shy away from large pendants.

The earrings were slightly more difficult. I tried making them exactly the same as the corner bit there, but it really looked ridiculous and not at all jewelry like. So I spent some time playing with stitch counts and moving elements around until they both matched and looked like earring ought to. I think I managed it.

As you probably guessed, I got these and the bracelet all listed on Friday. Then I got a custom order request, that was promptly purchased and I worked on that the rest of the day and into the weekend. I say promptly purchased, because I'm having another one of those bouts of people asking for things, conversing back and forth and measurements and whatnot for days even and then disappearing. It's fine, really, just kind of frustrating.

The rest of the weekend was family adventuring once the last order was done. Now I have just this last week of freedom before I become a teacher to my children for most of the day. I still don't know how I'm going to use my last week, but hopefully there will be something interesting to make it nice.
