Description: |
Use RAW and PRAW to stitch unique
beaded beads! Colorful Czech Saturn beads take the stage
alongside matching beaded beads in this otherworldly
necklace. The focal piece combines right-angle weave (RAW)
and prismatic right-angle weave (PRAW) stitches with a
little bit of wirework to encase a Saturn bead inside
several arcs of beadwork. Embellished beaded beads accompany
and mimic the facets of Saturn beads, and they're so
satisfying to stitch that you won't want to stop at just
one. String them in the necklace as shown, or add them to
bracelets and earrings.
In this class, you'll use a combination of RAW
stitches to create these unique beaded beads. You'll use a
similar technique to create the focal pendant, which
features a Saturn bead suspended in the center and
surrounded by several arcs of beadwork stitched with PRAW-3.
You'll embellish both with a layer of intricate Japanese
seed beads, and you'll string the necklace with additional
Saturn beads and Czech pearls.
