Day 76 – 100 Days of Polymer Clay

Technique: Knit Texture Pendant
Win: Yes

Challenges:

  • Creating a convex pendant with a knit texture and faux sewing edge detail
  • Making a patchwork flower for the pendant
  • Creating matching beads using the same colours, texture, and style

Lessons Learned:

  • I really enjoy the knit texture effect and the cosy feel it gives the piece
  • The faux stitching around the patchwork edges adds a handmade, almost storybook quality
  • Repeating the same texture on the beads helped tie the whole set together nicely
  • Small texture details can completely change the personality of a piece

Confidence Level: 8/10

Notes:
This piece feels like a tiny wearable quilt stitched together from clay instead of fabric.  The combination of texture, patchwork, and stitching details gave it a soft handcrafted charm that was really satisfying to create.
