Stitch a whriling pendant with three kinds of RAW! The
Pirouette Pendant features a textured glass cabochon with an
organic, twisty motif. I sought to mimic this spinning
motion with several loops of seed beads stitched with
twisted and cubic right-angle weave. Each loop naturally
twists and coils back to the center as you stitch it, and
sparkly rivoli crystals complete this very satisfying
pendant.
This pendant features a vintage-style glass
cabochon bezeled with delicate layers of Japanese seed
beads. You'll learn how to stitch several loops of twirling
beads off of the bezel using a combination of twisted cubic
right-angle weave (tCRAW) and coiled cubic right-angle weave
(cCRAW). These CRAW variations naturally twist and coil
based on their specific thread paths. Small bezeled rivoli
crystals complete the pendant, and a twisted chain completes
the piece.
