Blue Dutch Spiral

I finally got around to adding a nice magnetic closure to my dutch spiral necklace. A tutorial from Beadwork About.com (click HERE) has a nice pattern for a bracelet that can be made into a necklace. I've been working on some right angle weave too (the beaded band on the tube top). And I have another bead crochet started and am going on an art outing today. Hope to have some photos for you tomorrow.

    It is so very lovely. Must take a lot of patience.

      You know I have no patience! It was time spent laughing with a friend who taught me the stitch. She has since moved away, but I always think of her when wearing this piece.

      Thanks Carol! Periwinkle is my favorite, but I am in love with blue, period!
