Great texture in that top BWeaves! Perfect for pearls ; )

Thanks to Purranha and Kay, I've discovered a wonderful new way to wear my 5-6mm akoya. This rope is made up of my 18" golden akoya and 18" blue akoya, connected to a 36" rope of pistachio akoya (all from Hisano).

BWeaves - That is so impressive! Looks very chic and comfortable. Not sure if you mentioned in earlier threads, but do you weave the top from the loom, or do you weave large pieces of fabric, then having to draw out the design/cutting, cut the fabric & roll the edges, then sew them on sewing machines?
 
MSC, thanks for the tip on those wonderful butterfly necklaces - definitely have to get one!

BWeaves you so amaze me...what's next??

Baby Nurse love your colorful akoya rope - so versatile!

Today it was a baggie sweater & jeans day with fireball on gold chain and an akoya tin cup with dangling soufflé Pearl. The picture doesn't capture the brilliance of the pearls

Purranha: I weave specialized yardage. So the fabric comes off the loom looking like a bolt of cloth. The difference is, I've planned ahead of time where I want the lace or pattern to go, so that when I cut my pattern pieces, the lace falls in the right place on the top. The only waste I had on the lace top was a little half-moon cut out for the neckline and a little triangle where I sloped the shoulders.

LMGarden: Those large pearls, oh my. They glow.
 
BWeaves, the end results are amazing - I can see why it would be so time consuming. You have talent and patience!
