Necklace #50. This shibori-dyed fabric is flannel! It is pleasingly tactile.
Both necklaces are on bamboo fiber bias tape.

And Returning to Buttons Covered in Artisanal Fabrics....
Here are two necklaces covered in fabric dyed by Miriam Sklar of mimishibori. I am lucky enough to have some of her remnants, including samples from early in her career. To see her full range of garments and read her interesting commentary on shibori, see her website at www.mimishibori.com.
And this fabric on Necklace #53 is cotton. The interesting designs are made by applying a potato-starch resist to the cloth and then pouring pigment into the cracks in the resist medium.
Both necklaces are on bamboo fiber bias tape.

Those are gorgeous - they have a lot of color and life to them, especially for fabric.
