Reader’s Choice — Theme: Jill Sobule
One of my favorite musicians, Jill Sobule, has a new album coming out in a few days. To celebrate, I thought it would be nice to create a piece of jewelry in honor of her music. Since the last Reader’s Choice turned out so well, I decided to do it again for this piece. Instead of chosing a theme you get to choose which song I base the jewelry on (and the beads, of course).
I picked 5 of my favorite Jill songs and chose ten different types of beads (mostly) at random. First, vote on the songs:
Which Jill Song Should I Use?
- Rainy Day Parade (29.0%, 4 Votes)
- Karen By Night (21.0%, 3 Votes)
- Vrbana Bridge (21.0%, 3 Votes)
- Rock Me To Sleep (14.0%, 2 Votes)
- Love Is Never Equal (14.0%, 2 Votes)
Total Voters: 14
If you’re not familiar with Jill’s fabulous music, click the links. There you’ll be able to listen to part or all of each song.
Now pick the beads. I provided a handy gallery here. Click to see them in more detail. The quality isn’t great, I know :(

Polls close April 4th at noon. I’ll have the piece up by April 14th, the day the album comes out. (Which you should pre-order, you know.)

I’m going to post this on Jill’s chat line so more of her fans (and Jill) will see this wonderful idea.
Thanks, Vincent! I would love to have tons of Jill fans help me choose :)
