Something a bit different for IMT this week as I've been doing a lot more jewellery making than painting recently. Although I am still working on a painting inspired by the "Dear Diary" prompt and I'll post it when it is eventually finished.
When I saw the theme was DNA it made me think of the tubular peyote stitch I am working on at the moment. The beads swirl round in close strands and look like DNA.
Here is a necklace I am working on - with the strands in tubular peyote. I'm still doing something wrong because it is supposed to be much more regular and even than mine but I kind of like the random ruffled look it has at the moment.
I've beaded round an Agate slice as the pendant. Its still a work in progress because I'm hoping to add more embellishments in different shades of blue to match the different tones in the pendant.

Thanks for visiting my blog. I love your jewelry! That one with the shells in a previous post is incredible!
Stunning...I love the following post of the jewels too...Beautiful work!
This is beautiful! I've never tried beading, although I'd really love to spend a bunch of money on jewelry supplies. That peyote stitch is just wonderful - is it as difficult as it looks?
Yes It sure looks like DNA . How original !! Great piece !
