Have a Heart Pattern

Originally part of my tea light design (Festive Tea Lights III), this 3-Dimensional heart is now available separately. The heart measures about 1.75mm (3/4″) wide and about 1.75mm (3/4″) high, and can be used for many things, including ear rings, key chains, bag charms. I’m sure you will have other wonderful ideas, and feel free to share on our Facebook page.

This 8-page pattern introduces tubular peyote with herringbone increases. Full instructions with diagrams, photographs are provided, but previous experience of general beading and peyote stitch in particular is essential. You will mainly use size 11 seed beads in 2 colours – see below for quantities. You will also need 1 x size 8 seed bead in the contrast colour.
