Brick Stitch Earring Pattern
Haven't decided on your own project yet? You can practice using dentalium by making this simple earring. Don't know how to do brick stitch? You'll find various methods explained at the following websites:
- Beadtime Stories (Annie Scarborough)
- Beadyboop's Classroom (Charlene Hughes)
- Bead-Patterns.com (Rita Sova)
- Beadmaiden's Loom Cheyenne Stitch Instructions (Deb Walker)
- The "Other" Brick Stitch at About.com
COLOR CODE
You can use any colors you like. I used size 11° seed beads in a transparent green iris with matching #3 bugles, greasy yellow, pink white hearts, and some #2 white satin bugles. The actual earring will come out a little shorter, proportionally, than the diagrams above.
