Each is approximately 2"x2" and were made during the workshop. Deb's is the one on the upper left corner and has is set with a free spinning hemitite bead. I will be exploring more of these smaller sized brooches. My thanks to my wife Carrie who encouraged me to make these.

Hi Fred, Just thought I pop by and have a peek....I really like those last 3 brooches you made. The concept is quite elegant and I think it's a great way of allowing the actual metalworking process to stand out.

Ford, I am flattered to have you visit my blog and appreciate your compliments. I find it important for the process to be seen in my work and often I find the steps to create are more important than the created piece.
Best,
Fred
Fred,
I am one of Deb Jemmot's perpetual students. I met you a couple of years ago at Yuma.....
The brooch (shown in this blog )you made her so inspired me, I had to make one in a similar style to practice the techniques you used. Of course I give you credit for the design and am thankful for the inspiration!

Hi Fred~ I hope you and Carrie have had an amazing year! I am currently in my last term of my MFA ( thesis making and writing) and wanted to let you know how special the Idyllwild experience was for me. I love my brooch and wear it often:) Thank you so much for a great reminder of many memories. Looking forward to seeing you both in the hopeful near future~ Love mara
