peyote stitch pattern Beach Series - Sunrise on the Beach

For those of us who are 'morning people,' sunrise at the beach is a favorite time of day.  I'll set an alarm just to rise before first light. 

This, third in the series of beach inspired peyote stitch beaded bracelet patterns, is the result of a walk at sunrise on the beach.  Take the walk, in your imagination, as you stitch this stunning, pastel toned bracelet.

Sunrise on the Beach is available now in my Etsy store.  You can find the link Here.

peyote stitch Beading at the Beach

It's almost August, and it's hot in the South.   The mention of  the word "beach" sounds cool and refreshing.

During the middle of the day, when the sun is high and the air is hot, step indoors and devote a few relaxing hours to peyote stitching your bracelet from my newly posted Water Earth and Sky Peyote Stitch Beaded Bracelet Pattern. You can find the pattern in my Etsy store here.

Roasted Blackberry Swirl peyote stitch bracelet pattern

I've posted a new pattern in my Etsy shop!

Summer is well under way here in Memphis; it's 100+ degrees most days.  Fresh fruit abounds.  What smells better or tastes better than fresh fruit?  The aromas of fresh fruit take me back....  Where does your mind wander with a whiff of blackberry cobbler?  Or, homemade peach ice cream? Or, strawberry shortcake?

I've been baking and photographing, and all that inspires my creative mind to develop Peyote Stitch Beaded Bracelet Patterns.

The roasted blackberry ice cream was awesome; sorry you couldn't taste. But, you can recreate a visual of a swirl of the ice cream with my newest 3-drop, peyote stitch bracelet pattern.

Visit my Etsy store to see this and other bracelet patterns.  I'm posting patterns to the new shop frequently.

Stop by when you have a moment to rest, remember, and be inspired to bead your own bracelet.

here we go!

I was so hesitant to pick up the needle and begin.

Though I had admired My Friend A's peyote stitch bracelets, I never thought I would attempt what appeared to be a very time consuming, detailed project.

My Friend K placed a pattern and supplies in front of me during one of our monthly 'girl days.'  How could I say no, knowing all the time that I could just barely see the 11mm beads, and never dreaming that I could actually pick them up with the needle.

A few beads later, I was on a roll!  No turning back now!

The beads slide on to the needle, faster and faster, row after row, and I wait stitch after stitch for the beautiful colorful beaded pattern to unfold before my eyes.

And that brings me to today.  Peyote stitch bracelets lend themselves so well to reflect the creation God has given us to enjoy.  In my designs you will see what I see in the world around us.

I hope you will enjoy following along on my blog as I write about pattern designs in progress, new ideas and inspiration, and perhaps I'll share a pattern with you from time to time.

I have opened an Etsy store.  Like this blog, the Etsy store is in it's early stages of development.  I hope you will visit my Etsy store often, as my inspirations may be your next original accessory.
