Bead Patterns

Shady Brady Gal Nk Pattern
This Necklace was featured in a 'Fire Mountain Gem' Ad, in the Oct 2004 Isse of the Lapidary Journal. So now you can make one for your self.
This is an original design, peyote stitch, finished necklace without fringe measures 4 inches wide by 3.5 inches long. Use your own creativity, for neck piece and fringe. I hung my peyote Shady Brady Gal from a 4 inch pipe bone, and added twisted fringe, carrying the colors down from the beadwork. The neck piece is a braid of chuck turquoise and red jasper with a few silver beads added. I'd love to see your finished design, bead and enjoy.

Call Me Country Nk Pattern
Welcome to the second of my Shady Brady Series Patterns. My Shady Brady Patterns are inspired by our Western Way of Life style living here on the high desert of Southeastern Oregon, also known as the "High Lonesome"
Call Me Country is done in the peyote stitch, and the finished work is approx. 4 inches by 4 inches. Not including the twisted fringe. I chose a combination of semi precious stones, wire wrapped to create a different style neck piece. I'm using a 4" pipe bone to hang the beaded piece from, it gives the work better stability, and displays to be called attention too.

Border Collie Action Pattern
Border Collie Action, Even Peyote finished piece is 4" by 2 1/2" in length. Use your imagination. I finished mine by using a piece of Sterling Silver from a brow band off a bridle, any piece of straight silver will work. The pattern shows the black as brown beads, so you can read the pattern.
This necklace was inspired by my faithful friend and right hand girl my border collie Jamie, everyone should be so lucky to have a helper like her.
