I think it is something about this time of year...lots of new beading designs coming out. Very simple and 'quick' ones, too! Well...'quick' in beading terms can mean it only takes a week to make a piece. These bracelets worked up pretty quickly once I learned the design and made about 4 of them.
The designer, Deborah Roberti, calls them Bobble Bangles.
With the holidays around the corner.....
And a straggler - I had forgotten about this guy. This is 1/2 of a full St. Petersburg stitch - you can probably guess it is a Russian stitch. I haven't mastered the full St. Petersburg yet and am still trying to figure out the darned pathway of the thread. A bit complicated, those Russians. This is the only one I have made so far.
If this was a full St. Petersburg it would have a repeat of the blue and the red on the other side of the crystal beads....I just don't know how......yet.
Finally, a picture that reminds me of the Princess and the Pea.......Mini, Warrior Princess, has been waiting very patiently but now wishes I would cease hunching over a beading tray and go with her to survey her kingdom and bark at squirrels. So I am off to obey the Royal command.....but I will let her do the barking at squirrels.
Happy Beading!
