A new take on stitched jewelry

September 26, 2010 by Denise Felton 2 Comments

I’m in love with the work of Johanna Wood of Metal, Cloth & Wood. Her unique handcrafted jewelry is young, clever, and well-designed — and incorporates embroidery! In a personal note, Johanna says,

I use free motion embroidery to decorate muslin which I then wrap around a glass cabochon and set the whole thing in sterling silver — the result is very sweet and very special. Like a framed piece of artwork in every piece!

See more on her web site. Or go directly to her Etsy shop.
