Did my first set of cabs the first week we were in one place, then wrapped all but the ring the second week we stayed in one place, then wrapped the ring in the truck on the way to Missoula.  Hope you like. It's Rocky Run Moonstone from PA  Used Lori's (sitnwrap) tutorial for the bracelet, this is my first.  The pendant and earrings  The pendant in the sun  The ring is adjustable and fits sizes 6-9  I can't take credit for coming up with the design for the ring. I was looking for a tutorial for an adjustable ring and found pics of this design. Complications were in the way for me to buy the tute, but luckily, I was able to figure it out by pics and added my own flair to it. I'm pretty proud that I got this done... a goal I've had for a while now. Hopefully there will be more sets to come, I'll keep ya posted. Thanks for checking these out! Jo |

You're proud for a good reason, Jo! The set is very well done, both technically and artistically. Very good match of the pieces.

Really great set, Jo. The metal sets off the stones nicely and the pieces complement each other very well.

Yeah it is. I've been looking for a long time for the right ring to do. I found two that I'm happy with now, one adjustable and one non adjustable. The stone is in there real good, I used half hard on the wire around the outside of the tiny cab to keep it safe and secure. Thank you everyone, your comments mean alot to me, and encourage me to keep moving forward. |

You did a fantastic job an all of them.
One suggestion that I have found works....On the bracelet, make the ends a little longer and bend down past the wrap wires so they touch the band wires and there will be no snags.
Good job,
Ken

Jo, That set is absolutely gorgeou! I don't think I have ever seen a more complete set. Usually it's pendant and earrings. Boy you really raised the bar in the jewelry set dept with this.
Have to add, your my hero! being able to wrap while in a moving vehicle, I just can't imagine. WTG Girl, you rock.
