Xmas Strawberry BeadDress

Description


About two days work, 2 1/2 inches tall, two inches across at the hem, and 3/4s of an inch at the waist. The bow is 3/4s of an inch long, and slightly wider. When held up, the two rows of white beads don't go outwards.

I didn't make a hanger for this one, as I'm not sure as I want to finish it as an ornament or not.

When I started this one, I knew it was going to end up a bit heavy. The cat's eye beads I use are not the right shape for the pattern, and they're heavier than the beads called for, but I think they work really nice with it. After I started I knew it was a bit too Christmas-y, but at the same time I noted they were the same colors for strawberries, making it a summer dress as well! :giggle:

The instructions for this came from a Japanese book, but as far as I can tell the title of the book is simply "Miniature Beads Dress".

I can definitely see the strawberry influence here, it's beautiful.  I made a miniature basket recently with a total of about 19 tiny seed beads as a feature.  How on *earth* do you manage with these **tiny** rolling, pinging-off-the-table missiles? :rofl:
