Square Diamonds Bracelet

This bracelet was part of my Master the Right Angle Weave Stitch Program.  The students 

used the basic pattern and created their own versions. It was a lot of fun, so get out your 

beads and start this easy -to-follow pattern and glam up your wrist. The rustic colors I used 

can be worn with jeans or your little black dress. This is really a versatile bracelet. Play 

around and replace the two hole pearls with the new series of two hole Czech beads now 

available.

Beginner project with four pages to print

Adriana Flower Bracelet

Beautiful feminine bracelet, that can be a stunning necklace too! Craw and peyote stitch combined and not difficult at all. Even though the pattern came so easily to me, I struggled for a few days to get the pattern published. At one stage I wanted to name my beautiful Adriana , Satan's daughter,  so frustrated I was with trying to publish the pattern.  First the illustrations that I did, did  not save correctly, then the file gave me that awful " file corrupted" message and in the last few days I rewrote, re illustrate the pattern at least six times. Well, it is now done and  posted  at last. And just for the record -  I was sooo  happy with the first pattern Enjoy

The devil in the Photos

Laura McCabe  said the devil  is in the beads, most often so, but that devil can manifest in the photos of the beads too! I do love shiny beads. Unfortunately they can create problems for the photographer as I need detail and the bling outshines the beads. So back to the beading table to unbling the cross. Karen came out great and this is just one side of this beautiful pendant. The spikes are situated on different levels or angles and the center part is round. I have decided to list the patterns next week because hubby and I are going away for the weekend at Dikololo and we are looking forward to visit with the uncles and aunts.  I do not want to list without proper photos.

The Spike

What a challenge to try and capture the true beauty of the 3D spikes around the bracelet. This is one of my all time favorite designs and something I'll personally will wear.

Neema - The popular one

Neema - "The popular one". Right angle weave play time resulted in the Neema design. Many years ago I was asked to do an article and supply a pattern to a very popular South African magazine. The editor wanted a right angle weave bracelet pattern and while working on the design we jokingly decided to call it " Right angle weave  for idiots" . It later became very popular but just before the magazine was send off to the printers we decided to rather change the description to " Easy right angle weave stitch for all". Neema is written in such a manner that even a technically challenged right angle beader will be able to successfully complete the design. The illustrations really gave me some headaches. But persistence prevail  and I achieved my goal.
I have always admired Sabine Lippert's ( Try to be better) designs and learnt the joys of right angle weave stitch with Marcia De Coster's books and patterns.  This weekend I teach another Master The Right Angle Weave class and in preparation I have come up with a few new patterns. The Neema will be available at My Etsy and Artfire before the weekend. The pattern will consist of a bracelet and pendant design.
