I've made most of the storyteller necklaces in my collection. They are very special pieces that usually start out being for friends (one was for myself). I am not a Mom and didn't have a Mom to bead one of these for but it's a very classic storyteller so Patti decided to weave this pattern. The weaving itself wasn't so hard despite the shaped body of the necklace, but making the split loom style strap was very challenging, even for Patti. Love the turquoise nuggets in the fringe. On the backs of these necklaces I've done, I've put my name or thename of the friend it is for, sometimes both my initials and the friend's. Patti chose to put her online name, Jazzybead but wanted to make sure I got credit as designer, hence the DES EAS.
