Beautiful, beautiful work! Here are my first feeble attempts at off mandrel pendants and a heart. Also an on mandrel butterfly modified from the off mandrel tut for beginners. The feelers broke off when I was cleaning it lol. The pendants are in order from the first one to last one I have made so I think I am making a bit of progress anyway.

Nice heart Sonja I think you are making progress too. When I started pendents (off the mandrel) it took me till number fifty to get everything where I wanted it. But even the ones I did with hooks that looked small have not broken on my daughters neck and she has been wearing it for the last three years.
