It’s time

From 9 to 23 of March I will guide some beading-workshops on the cruise ship “AIDABlu”. I am very glad and also a bit excited. See you soon!

Hindia

When I saw the pattern from Heather Collin, I knew, I must have it.

My version has cool colors. I did not want the chain behind and I found the basic element a bit too big, so I designed a smaller one.

Achat

I liked this stone from the first moment, I saw it, but it took me a bit longer to find the right idea for its presentation.

The necklace is made with tubular RAW, the bezeling of the stone with peyote.

Lady Godiva

On the blog of Franza Fantasy I found the instructions for this necklace.

My big pearls have 12 mm instead of 10 mm, so I had to modify the pattern. On a black polo neck sweater it looks very good.

Ornament

I also crocheted. It is a pattern, which was published in the advent-calendar of 2007 by perlenhaekeln.de. I put some drops as highlights in.

When it reigns…

This necklace from Isabella Lam attracted my attention in the February issue of the Bead & Button Magazine. First I made a red version with remaining beads.

Then I had to try it with pearls. Here I modified the last row.

Zig Zag Scallops

When I saw the pattern of this necklace from Sheryl Yanagi in the Bead & Button Magazine December 2011, I knew, I have to bead it.
