Expanding My Repertoire
I think an 8 bead circumference is quite a practical size for a necklace, but I want to be capable of working ropes of larger circumference. This one is 12 around. I'm still working on it, but so far, so good.
So you would have to first modify the flowers/leaves in order to keep the proportion between pattern and background consistent? And these work in certain multiples?
Crikey, you're always up for another challenge, Jane!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see it!! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat challenge, it means a longer length of beads to be loaded... that flowers are still my favourite pattern.
ReplyDeleteIt does have a very long threading pattern!

ReplyDeleteNo the pattern is for 12 bead circumference, I didn’t change it at all. This pattern is freestyle, not regular or multiples of anything.
DeleteLooks wonderful and your work with these beads is brilliant how you work with 12 beads
