Fascinated By Tiles

Hello, lovely readers!

Today I bring you a project that I started last year but I was not very happy with it because I was sure it was not perfect.

It was the Persian Tile motif, designed by Marcie Abney that I did for my friend Nan Smith's challenge on July. The blog post is HERE.

So, this time I made two more motifs using better quality beads. I replaced the Czech seed beads (I love Czech beads but the seed beads are not their best product) with Japanese Toho seed beads which are bigger and more consistent in size.

I think I'm not over with beaded tiles. I'm totally fascinated by them!

Project Pinterest

Hi! Today, I'm participating in the Project Pinterest blog party hosted by Oksana of Oksana Plus Hobbies.
Hoje, estou a participar no Project Pinterest organizado por Oksana do blogue Oksana Plus Hobbies.

This is my pin from Pinterest - a swirly pendant in circular netting stitch. The moment I saw it, I knew I had to make one too.
O meu pin no Pinterest é um pendente em espiral feito com missangas. Quando o vi, percebi logo que tinha de fazer um igual.



In my version, I've used Preciosa Czech gold and dark bronze seed beads.
A minha versão tem missangas douradas e bronze escuro da marca Preciosa.
