I was wondering where you were. You were off getting a edumacation. Looks GREAT, too! I bet you had a lot of fun. Now I get how you put the stones in a round bracelet. Duh. What was I thinking before? Your intarsia looks awesome! And, so does that ring. Wowsers!

Looks like a whole lot crammed into two weeks but it Looks like you did great. You will have to keep at it now that you are home so you don't forget too much. Looking forward to your future pieces. Forgive my intarsia ingnorance but what is the line near the top of the one on the left? Is that a seam? I would not expect a seam there. It looks like there are more pieces to the puzzle then just 5. I was originally thinking it was a rectangle cab with a top, bottom and 2 sides. Chuck

Wow, you put some serious whup a$$ on some stones and silver.
Speaking of a$$ thank you for the laugh and I hope it is with you. I have no idea why my eyes hit first on your fingers behind the ring in the photo of you showing the side of the ring with the arched line at the top. Probably just my warped eyes mind. Jim

I’M BACK..... I had a fun Intarsia class then a grueling advanced Silver class. But WOW all that I learned was priceless. This class will be instrumental in me completing another post-project I’m working on. Here are all the pics. Wow, look at you Mel! *very* impressive work and creative talents on display there.
