This is a lariat I finished recently from a kit I purchased from Laura McCabe. I really love Laura's jewelry and own a few of her kits, patterns, and book. This is a really pretty piece when worn with a darker color such as black or purple (the lariat is lavender colored). I have also included a close-up of the lariat ends so you can get an idea of the intricacy of the beading. The lariat rests on an white-worked antique table cloth I got from my grandmother. If you are interested in seeing Laura's work, I have a link posted on right side of the blog ["Just Let Me Bead"]. Her work is beautiful, enjoy!
