It has been quiet here on my blog.
That happens sometimes
(especially after my busy Pinktober month !!!)
But I can say that I wasn't idling my days away !

There was another "(Un)perfect 10 gram" meeting at the end of November
We had to work in black
and the motto was "facing black"
with a bit of sparkle, or lights.
I must say I have no problems with that colour
(I'm often wearing it)
Like always we had a fun meeting
with lots of inventive products.
I made a black "Möbius" ring

I only did a try out on paper
(and skipped the metal in the end)

One down, one to go

And with lots of seed beads stitched on I have now a lovely set that goes together
Happy !
