Check out the sweet review of Signature Styles by Jenny Doh (published earlier this year) by Vicki O’Dell (The Creative Goddess) over at the Craft Test Dummies site. I was one of twenty artists interviewed and invited to create a stitched project for the book–and I’m so flattered that Vicki was inspired to make my Rosette Necklace (from recycled T-shirt scraps, but of course!) in her review.

It’s a very simple yo-yo necklace that you can stitch by hand — but check out how Vicki put her own signature on it by painting the fabric first (high fives for personalization — I love that she took a yellow T-shirt she hated and made the colors so rich!) and adding some beading (seed beads, bugle beads, and some nice pearly centers) to the flowers! The finished photo is below (via The Creative Goddess herself), but click all the way so you can see her process!

As you all I know, I get positively giddy to see how other people interpret my projects — and I just love how Vicki’s version turned out! Have any of you tried making the necklace? Be sure to post the results over at the Generation T Facebook page!
