I'm still on a Tiger eye binge. Started 2 projects including the birdshead, then realized that I forgot about Valentine. Tried to make something for Valentine, but broke it and did another cab that turned out perfect for me. Abused my daughter again to model for me: LOL So I was a day or two behind for Valentine hide35 Hurried it up, got close But not close enough as I still need to re-enforce the lines and undercut to make the heart stand out more as well as remove some flat spots. One more day and it could be done; alas it will have to be the usual dinner and flowers. Luckily we got our anniversary of the day we first met in 5 days; so it will have to wait till then. LOL

Well it's a lovely design!!! The day you first met might be more meaningful than Valentines day anyway:).

Looking fabulous! What a complex pattern, and how interesting to see the working steps.

I like those designs. Put 'em on a thong, and you're ready to roll. It really shows off the hand-cut stone.

peachfront - you scared me there for a minute trying to picture it -"Put 'em on a thong". Then I thought , no... flip-flops! Then I looked at the rest of the thread...Ahhhh, necklace!
kk - you got way more talent than I.
