done.



I finished it yesterday afternoon, finally! I mean really? It's just another embroidered piece...but it's designed to be worn so it needs to fit a human, needs to lie flat and hang straight. ...and it's the piece that caught the eye of the gallery owner!

The clasp is double snaps. I couldn't see putting a totally unrelated silver clasp there and don't really like the peyote toggles so I used some black snaps. Need to remember (again) that I hate white pellon and should only use black so it doesn't look like underpants are showing through the beads.

Thanks! Nope, not a Heidi, just a Kelly. It's at the gallery now, thank goodness...I was fussing too much.

Love it! (and the integrated clasp) And congrats for finishing. I like the contrast of the lighter fish...
