Description (2014), 9"x4", Size 15 seed beads and size 11 seed beads worked in Ndebele stitch, closure beads, focal glass art beads, fireline.

For spring-time I often go back to the color combination of leaf-green and pink or lilac. This bracelet picks up a little on that color scheme, though I muted the greens to a soft sequence from beige to olive and the pinks and lilacs to a darker violet.

Thank you! I find this pattern really addictive. It's always a bit of a surprise how the colors eventually combine - when you put the vials side-by-side it's not really how the stitched piece will look...

Another lovely beaded bracelet!  The olive-green tones really take on a gold cast, making this bracelet's overall scheme both soft and regal in addition to the spring you were aiming for.

How beautiful - I love how you accented the stitch with the colours, so that it undulates both physically as well as visually. You are truly an amazing artist.
