Piece Offering: Jill Sobule Pendant and Earrings
Thanks to everyone who voted on the Jill Sobule theme! The song with the most votes was “Rainy Day Parade” and you wanted me to make something with Jade and Rose Quartz. Here’s the result:

An an awful lot of mornings
I gave this bracelet to Jill at her release party Tuesday night. Here she is wearing it:
And then, after all that, I made one more! A pair of earrings based on Jill’s song “Smoke Dreams”:
The pendant and earings are both available in the marketplace for $20 and $15 respectively. You should also check out Jill’s new CD California Years. It’s amazing! You can also buy Pink Pearl, my first and favorite Jill album, which includes the song “Rainy Day Parade”.
