    One of the most frequent requests we get is for

    Bead&Button to become a monthly publication.

    Our readers simply can’t get enough! While it isn’t

    possible at this point for us to double the number of issues

    we print, we at Bead&Button are happy to bring you

    this first ever issue of B&B Extra, a digital supplementexclusively for our magazine subscribers. A new issue of

    B&B Extra will become available every other month,

    between the months in which you receive your regular issues. So now — finally

    — you’ll receive Bead&Button projects every month!

    I hope you enjoy this inaugural issue, featuring four great bracelet projects plus

    a versatile ornament. Our sponsors are a vital part of the beading community,

    so please join me in welcoming them and consider shopping with them the next

    time you have a need for beads!

    stepby step

    First flower head[1] On a comfortable length of threador Fireline, pick up 12 110 seed beads,

    leaving a 6-in. (15 cm) tail. Sew through

    all the beads again to form a ring, and

    tie the working thread and tail with

    a square knot (Online Beading Basics).

    [2] Pick up a 4 mm pearl, sew through

    the corresponding 110 on the oppositeside of the ring (figure 1, a–b), and sew

    back through the pearl and the 110 

    your thread exited at the start of this

    step (b–c).

    [3] Pick up three 110s, skip the next 110 in the ring, and sew through the follow-

    ing 110 to form a picot (c–d). Repeat

    this stitch to complete the round, and

    step up through the first two 110s in

    the first picot (d–e).

    Create your own unique flowers using fire-polished beadsin a variety of colors for a lovely pastoral bracelet. A discreetstrip of peyote stitch supports the flowers, provides a placeto attach the clasp, and gives the bracelet substance. You canalso experiment with omitting the peyote strip.

    [4] Pick up seven 110s, and sew throughthe center 110 of the next picot in the

    previous round (figure 2, a–b). Repeat

    this stitch to complete the round, creat-

    ing six points. Step up through the first

    four 110s added in this round (b–c).

    [5] Pick up seven 110s, and sew throughthe center 110 of the next point in the

    previous round (figure 3, a–b). Repeat

    this stitch to complete the round,

    creating the outside edge of theflower head (b–c).

    [6] Pick up a color A 4 mm fire-polished bead, and sew through the 110 

    in the initial ring of beads that corre-

    sponds with the 110 your thread exited

    at the start of this step (figure 4, a–b).

    Sew back through the A, the 110 your

    thread exited at the start of this step,

    and the next three 110s along the outer

    edge of the flower head (b–c).

    [7] Pick up a color B 4 mm fire-pol-ished bead, sew through the center 110 

    in the corresponding picot created in

    step 3 (c–d), and sew back through

    the B. Skip the next 110 along the outer

    edge, and sew through the next four

    110s (d–e).[8] Repeat steps 6 and 7. Repeat step 6

    once more, but sew through eight 110s

    along the outer edge instead of four (e–f).

    [9] Repeat steps 6 and 7 twice, and thenwork step 6 again, but sew through

    eight 110s along the outer edge instead

    of four (f–g). End the working thread

    and tail (Online Basics).

    FIGURE 5

    Subsequent flower heads[1] Repeat steps 1–4 of “First flowerhead.” To join to the previous flower

    head: Work as in step 5, but stop after

    the fifth repeat with your thread exiting

    the center 110 in the outer round of

    points (figure 5, point a). Sew throughseven 110s along the outside edge of

    an unembellished cavity in the previous

    flower head (a–b), and then sew through

    the center 110 of the next point in the

    new flower head (b–c).

    [2] Repeat steps 6–9 of “First flowerhead.”

    [3] Repeat steps 1 and 2 to makeand join a total of eight flower heads.

    Peyote band and assembly [1] Measure your wrist to determineyour desired bracelet length. On a com-

    fortable length of thread or Fireline,

    attach a stop bead (Online Basics),

    leaving an 8-in. (20 cm) tail. Pick up six

    150 seed beads, and work in flat even-count peyote stitch (Online Basics) to

    create a band that is 1–2 in. (2.5–5 cm)

    longer than your wrist measurement.

    [2] Remove the stop bead. String a9 mm jump ring over this end of the

    band, and with the tail, stitch the end

    beads to the back of the band approxi-

    mately 1 ⁄ 2 in. (1.3 cm) from the end.

    [3] Leading with the unfinished endof the band, string the flower heads

    onto the peyote band by weaving

    over the seven-bead edge of the unem-

    bellished cavities of the flower heads.

    Center the flower heads on the band,

    and add or remove rows of peyote

    if necessary.

    [4] Repeat step 2 on the remaining endof the band, and then open the jump

    ring (Online Basics), and attach the

    lobster claw clasp. w

    The clever design of this bracelet

    weaves a peyote band among the

    flowers for an added pop of color.

    stepby step

    [1] On a comfortable length of threador Fireline and leaving a 6-in. (15 cm)

    tail, follow the pattern to work two

    panels in flat odd-count peyote stitch

    (Online Beading Basics) using 110 Delica

    cylinder beads. On one panel, omit the

    center bead in each of the indicated

    rows, leaving an open slot. On the other

    panel, use color B beads where the

    opening is indicated. End and add

    thread (Online Basics) as needed.[2] To create the toggle bar: On 1 yd.(.9 m) of thread and leaving a 6-in.

    (15 cm) tail, work a strip of flat odd-

    count peyote that is 13 cylinder beads

    wide and six rows long. Roll the strip

    into a tube, and zip up (Online Basics)

    the end rows.

    [3] With the working thread exiting anend bead in the tube, pick up a 3 mm

    bead, and sew through the correspond-

    ing end bead on the opposite side of the

    tube. Sew through the beadwork of thetube to exit an end bead on the other

    end of the tube, and add a 3 mm bead

    the same way. End the tail but not the

    working thread.

    [4] Sew through the beadwork of thetube to exit a bead at the center of the

    toggle bar. Stitch a strip of five cylinder

    beads using ladder stitch (Online Basics).

    Stitch the five-bead strip to the center

    of the 21st row of the panel without

    the open slot.

    [5] Using the working thread and tailsfrom the panels, connect the panels by

    sewing back and forth through 3 mm

    beads positioned between the up-beads

    at the remaining ends of the panels.

    End all the remaining threads. w

    Work two peyote stitchpanels, and join them withaccent beads. A toggle barand built-in slot serve asthe clasp.

    stepby step

    Band

    [1

    ] On a comfortable length of Fireline,pick up a color A 5 mm Tila bead, acolor B 5 mm Tila bead, an A, and a B.

    Sew through all four Tila beads again to

    form a ring, sewing through the same

    holes as before and leaving a 6-in.

    (15 cm) tail. Form the Tila beads into

    two stacks of two beads each (figure 1,

    a–b). Sew through the second hole of

    both Tila beads in the last stack (b–c).

    [2] Working in two-bead ladder stitch,pick up a B and an A, and sew through

    the Tila beads in the previous stack and

    the two Tila beads just picked up (c–d).

    Continue through the second hole of

    the two new Tila beads (d–e). Repeat

    this stitch, flip-flopping the A and B

    each time, until the band is ¼ in.

    (6 mm) short of the desired bracelet

    length. End and add thread (Online

    Beading Basics) as needed. End with

    an odd number of stacks of Tila beads.

    End the working thread and tail.

    Add just a touch of biker chic with long bugle beads anddrop-bead embellishments. The width of the beadwork givesyou the look of a cuff with the drape of a bracelet.

    FIGURE 1

    FIGURE 2

    Spikes[1] Add 2 yd. (1.8 m) of Fireline to oneend of the band, and exit the first hole

    of an end B (figure 2, point a).[2] Pick up two color D 6 mm buglebeads, sew down through the next hole

    of the same Tila bead (a–b), and then

    sew up through the adjacent hole of

    the following Tila bead (b–c). Pick up

    two color C 6 mm bugle beads, sew

    down through the next hole of the same

    Tila bead, and then sew up through the

    adjacent hole of the following Tila bead

    (c–d). Repeat these two stitches for the

    length of the band, alternating between

    D and C 6 mm bugle beads, and then

    sew through the beadwork to exit the

    end Tila bead along the opposite edge.

    Repeat this step to add spikes to the

    other edge of the band. End the thread.

    Embellishment[1] Add 2 yd. (1.8 m) of Firelineto one end of the band, and sew up

    through the first bugle bead along this

    edge with the needle pointing away

    from the band (figure 3, point a).

    [2] Pick up two color F 150 seedbeads, and sew through the adjacent

    bugle bead (a–b). Pick up four color E

    150 seed beads, a 3.4 mm drop bead,

    and four Es. Cross the band diagonally,and sew through the corresponding

    bugle bead with the needle pointing

    away from the band (b–c).

    [3] Repeat step 2 (c–d) for the lengthof the bracelet, zigzagging across the

    band, and exit the last bugle bead

    along one edge with the needle point-

    ing toward the band (figure 4, point a).

    [4] Sew through a loop of the clasp,pick up a drop bead, and sew back

    through the loop of the clasp and

    the adjacent hole of the end Tila bead

    (a–b). Repeat this stitch twice (b–c).

    Retrace the thread path through

    the loops and drop beads to secure

    the connection.

    [5] Sew through the first holes in both

    end Tila beads, exiting the first unem-bellished bugle bead with the needle

    pointing away from the band (c–d).

    [6] Work as in steps 2–4, but insteadof picking up a new drop bead in step 2,

    sew through the existing drop bead to

    form an X across the center of the

    band. End the thread. w

    FIGURE 3 FIGURE 4

    EDITOR’SNOTE: Make a wider

    band by starting with

    six Tila beads in step 1

    of “Band,” and then work

    step 2, but pick up threeTila beads in each stack.

    In step 2 of “Embellishment,”

    pick up six 150s on either

    side of the drop bead. Use

    a four-strand slide clasp for

    the closure. –  Jane

     Josie Fabre has been

    beading for almost10 years. She resides in

    Slidell, Louisiana. She is

    a full-time scientist and mother

    but beads every chance she gets.

    She is inspired by nature, art,

    and architecture. She also enjoys

     photography and is beginning to

    combine her photographs with her

     jewelry designs. Contact Josie at

    PATTERN 1

    PATTERN 2 PATTERN 3

    My inspiration for this piececame from the fleur-de-listhat are seen everywhere inLouisiana. It’s worked inthree-drop peyote stitch,

    which means this braceletcomes together quickly.

    stepby step

    [1] On a comfortable length of threador Fireline and leaving a 12-in. (30 cm)

    tail, follow pattern 1 to work in three-

    drop peyote stitch using 110 hex-cut

    and cylinder beads. Go online to

    BeadAndButton.com/Basics to learn

    how to work two-drop peyote; three-

    drop is worked the same way but withthree beads per stitch. End and add

    thread (Online Basics) as needed.

    [2] To create a toggle bar: On 1 yd.(.9 m) of thread and leaving a 6-in.

    (15 cm) tail, work a strip of flat even-

    count peyote stitch (Online Basics) that

    is 18 beads wide and 12 rows long. You

    can work the bar in all one color bead,

    or follow pattern 2 to create a center

    stripe. Roll the strip into a tube, and

    zip up (Online Basics) the end rows.

    [3] At the center of the toggle bar, makea flat even-count peyote tab two beads

    wide and eight rows long (pattern 3).

    Use the two red boxes in pattern 1 as

    a guide to attach the tab.

    [4] To create a toggle ring (see the photoon the previous page): On the other end

    of the band, using the 12-in. (30 cm)

    tail, exit the 10th bead from the edge.

    In flat even-count peyote, make a strip

    28 beads long and two beads wide.

    Attach the strip to the 10th bead from

    the other edge. w

    stepby step

    Triangular panels[1] On 1 yd. (.9 m) of thread, work inladder stitch (Online Beading Basics) to

    make a ladder of 15 color A 110 cylin-

    der beads, leaving a 6-in. (15 cm) tail.

    This is row 1 of the panel.[2] Working in brick stitch, follow thepattern using 110 cylinder beads in

    colors A–H to stitch the next 13 rows:

    Row 2: A, C, four Bs, two Ds, four Bs,

    C, A

    Row 3: A, B, D, two Bs, D, E, D, two Bs,

    D, B, A

    Row 4: A, B, three Ds, two Es, three Ds,

    B, A

    Row 7: A, B, E, three Gs, E, B, A

    Row 8: A, B, E, two Fs, E, B, A

    Row 9: A, B, F, H, F, B, A

    Row 10: A, B, two Hs, B, A

    Row 11: A, three Bs, A

    Row 12: A, two Bs, A

    Row 13: A, C, A

    Row 14: two As

    End the tail (Online Basics) but not the

    working thread. Set the panel aside.

    [3] Repeat steps 1 and 2 to make atotal of six panels.

     Assembly [1] Place two panels side by side.Using the working thread from one,

    sew through the corresponding edge

    bead on the other panel, and continue

    through the next edge bead (photo a).

    Repeat this stitch to connect all the

    edge beads on this side. Do not endthe working thread.

    [2] Repeat step 1 to attach a thirdpanel, and then repeat again to connect

    the first panel to the third panel.

    [3] Repeat steps 1 and 2 with theremaining three panels to make a

    second 3-D triangle.

    [4] With a remaining thread from oneof the 3-D triangles, sew through the

    beadwork to exit an A at the tip. Pick

    up a 3 mm fire-polished bead and nine

    color B 130 Charlottes. Sew back

    through the 3 mm and tip A adjacent to

    the one your thread exited at the start

    of this step (photo b). Sew up through

    the following tip A, and retrace the

    thread path through the 3 mm and

    Charlottes, sewing through tip As that

    you have not sewn through yet. Retrace

    the thread path once more, making sure

    all the tip As are attached to the 3 mm.

    End the thread.

    [5] To make the fringe, add thread(Online Basics) to the other 3-D

    This ornament is truly versatile. Work it up in your favoritecolorway to reflect any holiday or season, or use a differentbead size to make a larger or smaller bauble.

    Charlottes, and sew up through the

    top three B Charlottes of the adjacent

    fringe loop (photo f). Sew through

    the adjacent tip A in the triangle, and

    continue through the following tip A.

    Repeat this step around to connect

    the top layer of fringe loops. End

    the thread.

    [9] Fill each 3-D triangle with asmall amount of fiberfill. Align the

    ladder rows of the triangles, and using

    any remaining thread, zigzag through

    the corresponding As on the two

    triangles to connect them. End any

    remaining threads. w
