Bead-Patterns the Magazine Issue 12 Jul/Aug 2007 Executive Editor: Deb Moffett-Hall
Welcome friends to issue #12
Happy 2 year Anniversary to Bead-Patterns the Magazine! Wow, where does the time go? Seems like just yesterday we were sending out surveys to find out what you wanted featured in an on-line magazine. You told us you wanted peyote projects with regular and word charts – we have 2 gorgeous projects, one from Sig of Beaded Bear Publishing and another from De Lynn Nelson. You wanted a mix of quick and easy and challenging, try Carol Ohl’s Peyote Dream Chain for a fun fast project or stretch your skills with the Aussie Spiral from Marilyn Peters. Sandra D. Halpenny shares a Jeweled Medallion necklace that will look great with bright summer colors as will the Crystal Squares project from Linda Gettings. So don’t forget to pack your beads when you leave for vacation you’ll want to spend some time stitching!
Best Wishes & Full Bead Dishes, Deb Moffett-Hall - Editor
This 3/8” wide chain is a wonderful way to showcase a focal bead or pendant. It works up quickly and has a nice drape and smooth feel around your neck.
Show everyone your patriotic spirit with this fun crocheted bracelet! For a special Christmas bracelet string a red & green background with silver or gold stars.
This slinky 18” box chain herringbone necklace is encrusted with brilliantly sparkling bicone crystals in two sizes. Matching crystal open-square links accent a removable 3” dangle.

We all love their brilliant sparkle but did you know that the company sponsors a fabulous yearly contest?
Brown Tropical Fish Pin - Page 20 by De Lynn Nelson
You’ll think of lots of unique uses for this stunning tropical fish design.... Pin it to your sun hat, your beach bag, decorate your sunglass case, or make it into a pendant.

A delightful mix of Size 5 triangles & multicolored yarn weave together a 7” bracelet on the Versa-Loom.
Jeweled Medallions Necklace - Page 26 By Sandra D. Halpenny
Rich tropical colors are accented with flashes of gold for a spectacular 16.5” necklace.
This stylish Silver & Crystal lapel pin looks like a trendy boutique item but is amazingly easy to stitch. Perfect for gift giving.
Woman Combing Hair - Page 36 By Sig of Beaded Bear Publishing
This is a great project to try out a word chart. Sig has found that word charts cut her beading time in half and are much easier to follow than color graphs for large designs but color graphs are included for those who prefer to use them.
