Granada

Pattern: Sabine Lippert's Beaded Fantasies

OK, so I got sidetracked yesterday with this lovely pattern and some amazing neon orange Swarovski 6mm pearls.

The rivoli is from eBay seller Beading in the Rain and I've had it forever.  I could never find the perfect project for it - until now.  The neon orange sets off the bright pink stone perfectly.  I'd recommend checking out Beading in the Rain.  They have the most beautiful custom coated Swarovski rivoli's amongst their huge collection of new and vintage crystal - it's impossible not to spend a fortune!

Right, Daisies next...

Pattern: Daisies, Sabine Lippert

Not only does Sabine create beautiful beadwork she also writes really easy to understand patterns.  This one uses the new Rizo beads (I bought mine from Stitchncraft).  The colour combinations are endless - I'm trying 24k gold plated beads with Swarovski Chrysolite Opal 2XAB next.
