Patterns – A world born from a bead-sized idea
Not every design begins with a sparkle. Sometimes there is only silence around me – and inside me, too. I sit among the beads, simply looking at them… no plan, just my fingers moving and my thoughts following their own paths.
Then one bead finds its place beside another. I do not know why that particular one, but it feels right to look at. Then another joins it. Slowly, almost without noticing, something begins to take shape in my mind – and on the table. Sometimes it takes only a few hours, sometimes days, for the picture to come together. Colors, shapes, rhythm. A new story told entirely through beads.
Once it is finished, I thread it again and again so that you can recreate it easily, too. I photograph it, write it down and edit it. Now the designs are here for you. Each one contains a small piece of me – and perhaps making it will bring you a little joy as well.
I offer more than a pattern: a complete, tested jewelry design that others do not share.
The patterns are designed by me and supplied as PDFs. Please use them for personal purposes only; sharing, copying or forwarding them is not permitted. Thank you for respecting my work!
