A Bracelet


A kind friend took me to a Bead Fair a couple of weeks ago and I managed to buy the beads to make this bracelet designed by Jennifer Airs which I've been wanting to try for a long time.  It is in Peyote stitch using different sizes and types of beads ranging from size 11 seed beads up to size 5 triangles with other sizes of seed beads, triangles and drop beads in between.  The use of varying sizes with this stitch results in a three dimensional effect.
