LOVELY earring book due out shortly which I appear in


The cover of this earring design book, 101 GORGEOUS EARRINGS, from Martingale & Company, due out shortly, is absolutely stunning to me! I am delighted to appear in it! I believe I offer four projects. This is great!
I love the cover "look"... as if the earrings were beautiful, exotic flowers blossoming with the actual blooms. Amazingly, this look is not distracting--just delightful!
I am not sure which of my earrings ended up in the book...as I remember, I made a number if sets which were supposed to match up color wise in the pages, which was complicated unless you made a whole lot of earrings and filled 2 pages! I might have made a total page or I might have been shuffled around. We shall see! I like Martingale a lot. One reason is, when the owners got older,everyone got together. The owners actually ended up selling the company to the people who work there. I think that shows really good faith and attitude.
If you google the company, you will see that they mostly put out books involving knitting, quilting and that sort of craft work.
However, if there is a jewelry book in their collection, I am there. Always proud to work with Martingale & Company!
