Girdled

Stone Kachina #5, Girdle 1
I have shown you this one before, but since then I've updated the thread weaving. The first connecting stitches were a straight back and forth, that was replaced with a caught stitch similar to netting.
That led to this one, the netting is featured here, easier to see as it is in a color that contrasts nicely with the stone. The tarnished gold beads and the lacing make me think of very complex clothing, something a Tudor would
wear.

Both of those led me to this, a more complicated development of the idea.
Stone Kachina #7, Girdle 3
 I am currently trying another offshoot of this idea...will post it soon.
