My first try at more detailed pattern.. I wanted to make one that didn't repeat the same thing over and over.. I went with cherry blossoms as they are in bloom all over town right now.. and one of my favorites for making everything from bracelets to fingerless gloves lol
I used size 11 seed beads for the white and pinks but switched to 12 for the black.. I knew the black would be over powering as it was going to be next to soft pinks so down sizing them would back it down a bit but it would also create more texture that would add to the over all look I was going for...
I love beads that are wonky.. different from each other.. I love the feel of them worked up.. makes each item truly one of a kind even when following a chart...
Used crochet thread size 20 and a 1.10mm hook
Got a chart maker.. still need to figure out how print or screen shot one, but in the meantime I will be happy with snapping a photo with my phone lol...
