Another flower - with tighter stitching

I think the colours are delicious - although I need to buy some thread that matches exactly! I only had a pastel yellow that was close but it shows on the top layer. I changed the pattern of the flower a little from the one in the magazine and it went really well. I apparently now know Peyote Stitch!

Helen's commission left me wanting a bracelet too!


So I made one. I didn't have enough of the stones I used in hers, so I went down the 'cheaper and bolder' route!

An aqua version of the last bracelet...and it is in focus!


I really love these two bracelets. I made the aqua one tonight and aim to make a root beer coloured one tomorrow. Mixing the accent beads and making the loops flow is so rewarding. I also love catching a glimpse of a sparkly bead when I am moving my hand.
The aqua bracelet was originally meant to be pure turquoise but I spotted some lime beads that I bought a couple of weeks ago, so I added them. I think the two colours go perfectly.
