stack o'bangles |
If you follow just about any European bead stitching blog, then you have seen these bangles derived from a pattern by Puca at
Les Perles de Puca. Actually, I found details about how they are assembled at the French bead forum
Histoire de Perles. They are also very similar to Sabine Lippert's
A Square and His Friends pattern. [Her English language book will be realeased in May 2012 by Lark!]. These bangles and
Cynthia Rutledge's Honeycomb Bangles seem to be in every French or Italian blog. I'm not usually into so many crystals, but I was drawn to these bangles particulary since I could stitch each with just Delicas, 11/0 seed beads, and some 4mm bicones.

Oh, Lois, these are beautiful! Guess I'll have to brush off my long-dormant French minor and hit those sites...
ReplyDeleteGreat way to use up Delicas for sure!
ReplyDeleteYou picked lovely colors, love your bracelets.

Lois! I ADORE these bangles!!! May have to give that a whirl myself!
ReplyDeleteHi, I found your blog through a picture of your pretty bangles on pinterest! I would love to attempt to make these, but I can't seem to find a pattern for them, or anything similar. Any information you might give would be appreciated! I know this was quite some time ago. :)

DeletePinterest also lead me to your blog, but I can't find information similar to this design on any of your links. I'd love to know more about how they were made. Well done by the way. They are lovely! I hope you still enjoy them.
