Black Lace

The basket begins with a beautiful stone slab of black lace agate.  The swirls in this stone contain gray, black, brown, and unusual white colors.  I tried to use those tones by weaving pine needles with muhly grass and using three colors of thread.  The pendants on the sides are painted jasper, as are the small stones.  I think this piece developed better than the picture in my  mind.  I plan to enter this piece in a show in December.


Approximate size:
