EPP ~ STARRY NIGHT NECKLACE

The theme for Le Challenge this month is “direction”.
 
I recently read Dava Sobel's “Longitude”,
a book about astronomy, navigation and horology.

It's my inspiration for this month because
long before maps or GPS, people relied on stars for direction.
 


So I English Paper Pieced these stars to make a necklace.
 
They are 4cm across from point to point,
with fusible woven interfacing on the back.

 Faceted blue beads represent the sky.

 
It's whimsical.

It's patchwork I can wear.

I like it!
