Hi!
I finally wrote out the "Raindrops on Rainbows" beading pattern for you guys. The pattern is done in brick stitch. The finished rainbow could be used as a necklace charm (as pictured below), large earrings, as a little decoration on your purse....or anywhere else that would benefit from a cheerful little rainbow:)
You can find a PDF version of the pattern HERE.
I noticed the link I had to the brick stitch tutorial on my other patterns was no longer working. So, HERE is a new one I found. It's animated, which is kinda cool. HERE is another tutorial with instructions for how to do fringe at the end. I found the instructions HERE to be good too. I start my first row with one bead (after the base/ladder stitch row) more like this tutorial.
For the "chain" part of the necklace in the picture above, I used beading wire and strung seed beads in various sizes in a rainbow color pattern. Also, I used all round size 11/o seed beads for the rainbow. The bead sizes could be changed up to make the rainbow larger or smaller.
You can find other helpful beading info HERE.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
This is so pretty, Marjorie.
