MOTHERS DAY GIFTS from Ineseda
Today is a special day at Fine Craft Guild. Lots of gifts, sharing and recognition. Let me begin with saying that both the talent and generosity of Inez Falleyn from Ineseda Design have no end. She has two amazing mothers day gifts for you.
First, a NECKLACE GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!!! Inez is giving away this unique piece of jewelry to one lucky reader. This crochet necklace is specially designed for you, my reader! It is 100% handmade with real coral and silk crochet yarn!
Next are Mothers day gifts to make, by you, with Inez’ free designer necklace crochet pattern. Inez shares with us, meticulously, her entire creative crochet jewelry design process, complete with individual mini- crochet patterns for all the elements and detailed illustrations. For free for you for Mothers day . So that you can make your own Mothers day gifts.
Third, the award. These gifts are in response to me approaching Inez for ‘A Stitch Above’-award. Showcasing her as well as her work is our gift to Inez as well as to you. Not just for Mothers Day, but because she is an artist whose creative caliber is truly a stitch above. Her story is an inspiration for us all. The award is at the end of this page.
Let’s begin with the giveaway, because I know you/myself: we all want a present!!!

A STITCH ABOVE
OK. With that raffle all set up, I now like to announce that our third ‘A Stitch Above’-award goes to Belgium designer Inez Falleyn, from Ineseda. Inez’ ar is contemporary designer jewelry. She’s a designer born out of passion and need: she could not find crochet jewelry she liked, so she started making her own.
Her life-long hobby of knitting and crochet has since developed into Inez now being a professional designer of contemporary crochet jewelry. Inez both sells her jewelry and teaches jewelry-making workshops. (As per the above: today she is giving away one of each: an online workshop tutorial and a piece of her jewelry to one lucky reader.)
As you can tell, Inez is good at what she does. When you’ll click on the link that goes to her online tutorial, you’ll realize it is more than a mere crochet pattern: it’s a fully-fleshed illustrated online crochet jewelry workshop. Everything Inez does is ‘a stitch above’. Her insistence on using top quality materials, her attention to detail and her insistence on simple elegance, is what makes her jewelry so well made. The artist in Inez decided to never make the same necklace twice. (So that lucky winner of our raffle today will get a true piece of meticulously-made original art!)
Ineseda stands for unique, quality crochet jewelry that is beautifully presented and meticulously made. Each is designed as a separate piece. No two pieces of jewelry are the same. I crochet with hand dyed silk thread for its beautiful sheen and lovely elegance. ~ Inez
Why we are giving Inez the ‘A Notch Above’-award:
I have been following Inez for a while, and can share that her path to success isn’t sloppy road. But her perseverance has been paying off! That is the true lesson for us all in Inez’ story of establishing her brand ‘Ineseda’: strong desire needs strong will. Inez is following her heart. Her will to succeed has been making he her try out new things, learn new things, and continuously improve her ways of working.
“Let go of old, limiting beliefs, be brave & dare to take some steps in yonder, and wonder.” is her motto. I can see many opportunities coming her way, as a result of this. Now she has reached a phase of making beautifully stylish jewelry, with a matching fabulous website and Etsy shop, and an increasingly full schedule of fairs to participate in and workshops to teach. In the near future, I can see her move from success to success: receiving design awards, write ups in magazines, etc. And I can see her become the author of a superbly illustrated crochet book, Because her jewelry style is unique and her workshop tutorials are already so well-illustrated.
