Egyptian Turtle Bracelet

If you've never tried 4 drop peyote before, give it a go!

4 drop peyote works up much faster than regular peyote, and the finished beadwork feels soft and slinky and has a lovely drape to it.

This bracelet is an Egyptian design done in size 11/o Delica beads and it depicts swimming turtles and a papyrus scroll.

Art Deco Fish bracelet

This the bracelet for a brick stitch set that I made. Brick stitch is a little more difficult than peyote stitch, but I think it's so versatile because you can make almost any shape with it.

Marie Starr wrote a fantastic tutorial for brick stitch and you can download it from her website.The link is http://www.starrdesignstudio.net and the tutorial is called 'The ABC's of Brick stitch'

Crystal Mosaic Bracelet

I can't even begin to tell you how beautiful these beads are.

This bracelet is done in Triangle weave, and it uses the Triangle weave circle that I have provided free instructions for.

The crystals that I used are 4mm Swarovski bicones in Ruby AB x 2.

This bracelet looks absolutely stunning on.

Midnight Seahorses pendant

This is one of my favourite pendants. The pattern grid is in peyote, but I found it much easier to turn the grid sideways and use brick stitch.

The chain that is attached to the pendant is also brick stitch.

I used size 11 Delica beads.

Eastern Collar

I made this collar a while ago, using the 'Versa Loom'.

I stitched the straight part of the collar first, and then, with the piece still attached to the loom, I added the fringe.

I used size 11 Delica beads, with size 15/o seed beads for the end of each fringe strand.

Free Triangle weave instructions

Many of my crystal jewellery patterns use Triangle weave. If you are not familiar with Triangle weave, but would like to learn, you can download free instructions on how to make a Triangle weave circle at my website here http://www.jayceepatterns.com/freepatternspg.html

Celtic Bracelet

The pink version of this bracelet is the one I stitched and the pattern is now for sale on my website.

The blue, green and silver version was stitched by Cat to test the instructions for me. She turned the bracelet into a choker, and did a fantastic job!

Evenstar necklace - new pattern available

This beautiful crystal necklace was inspired by Lord of the Rings.
I used netting stitch and triangle weave, with size 15 seed beads and Swarovski crystals.
It uses ALOT of crystals but the end result is stunning.
I'm busy working on a matching bracelet and earrings.

Dawn Roses - a work in progress

I am working on the pattern for this bracelet now, and hope to have it ready for sale in about 2 - 3 weeks time.

The bracelet is a series of "rose circle" consisting of double layers of crystal picots with a scalloped edge. Each "rose" has a pearl in the centre and the picot petals are edged by pearls forming a radiating star shape.

This bracelet is exquisitely beautiful, and lovely to wear especially at night when all the crystals sparkle as they catch the light.

Raspberry creme cuff

I love the feel of pearls and these crystal ones are divine. I used gold and bright gold with rose satin crystals.

Bella Luna

The violet opal beads used in this set glow like moonlight so I called it Bella Luna which means Beautiful moon.

I also used pink, burgundy and gold pearls.

No picture can do this set justice, it's really beautiful!

Garnet wings designs

This is one my favourite brick stitch patterns.

The butterfly pattern is scalloped and has a herringbone chain.

The bracelet is not only scalloped but has cut out sections as well. I used size 11 Delica beads for this design.

Iridium

This was the first scalloped brick stitch pattern I made. I used Delica beads in size 11/o - two of the colors have an iris finish and one is silver-lined. The bracelet is stiff and holds it's shape because the pattern was stitched top to bottom.
