With a demanding day job at a law firm, Freedman, whose family owns Freedman Jewelers in Downtown Crossing, continued designing pieces — five more that were fashion related, followed by a collection of five animals in two sizes, meant for moms and daughters. The necklaces and bracelets were a hit, Freedman’s customer base grew, and she decided to return to Boston to pursue her jewelry business, Samantha Faye, full time.
