Grace Necklace - Brick stitch spiral

Customers often ask me where I get the inspiration for all the bead designs. Inspiration comes from so many sources but this weeks design started life as a flat piece of brick stitch that was destined to become a bracelet, but it kept curling up looking like a tube, then I thought that of all the spiral ropes I have made I have never done one in brick stitch, so I started the piece again as a tubular rope. I have really enjoyed using the Rizo beads over the last few weeks and they sit perfectly with size 6 seed beads. I called the design Grace's Necklace.

 

I will be teaching Grace's Necklace at our workshops on 18th & 19th April 2013. Please contact GJBeads on 01736 751 070 to book a place.
