Here they are: done! It took extra time, first because I work very slowly, and second because I found a major mistake halfway, and had to cut everything apart and start over.

Eeeeee I love the subtle mixed sizes! And that clasp is neat too, reminds me of crab claws.

I love what you’ve done with those pearls, Linda. Those strands of Akoya were so so beautiful, and you got three of them? You’re so lucky, they were simply divine!

I'm starting on the second one... The first one is just short of 25". I like it long enough that I can look at it without a mirror! I'm also saving a few pearls out for earrings.

Linda, Oh, look what I found today! I love your idea of 2 separate strands and imo, your pearls may have better luster!

Pattye: oh wow! They are lovely, but. The nice thing is that 2 strands can always be connected together if desired. I wish I could get a really good photograph that would do the luster justice.
