#beadweaving — Public Fediverse posts

Finished my #beadweaving project #crafting #mayke. 11 inches of size 8 seed beads using peyote.

These diagrams show how to weave a puffy triangle beaded bead with peyote stitch and seed beads. If you want to make a longer beaded bead, using cellular automata on the sides, I recommend starting and ending that on the rounds of all blue beads.

Nothing brings me joy quite like a new strand of matching beaded beads. After drawing the diagrams for the flat triangle beaded beads, I stitched a whole strand. This strand features 9 different beaded beads in graduated sizes and a rainbow of colors. The largest bead in the center has a design created with cellular automata as described in my new book “Beading with Algorithms: Cellular Automata in Peyote Stitch.” I used the algorithm called Dot Arrays with a cycle of period three. The beads are light and hollow, and they make a pleasing clink when they knock together.

Yay! Finished my #crossstitch #embroidery. Just need to wash it and frame it now! The next crafting thing is to learn #beadweaving from my wife and mother in law. :-)

We found so much to include that the book ended up a full third longer than I had originally planned. It took years longer than I originally expected. But it was a labor of love, a passion project, something we made because we wanted to make something beautiful and inspiring. I can hardly believe it’s finally finished. I hope you will love it too.

Twelve years. I started this project twelve years ago, and today I hold the result in my hand. It’s a book that combines bead weaving with math called, “Beading with Algorithms: Cellular Automata in Peyote Stitch.” With help from mathematician and artist Roger Antonsen, graphic designer Zelda Lin, a handful of talented proof readers, and the good people from World Scientific Publishing Company, my dream of combining my loves of math, art, and teaching into a book is finally a reality.

This book is the first of its kind, a recipe book of algorithms that can be used and combined to generate colorful patterns in peyote stitch beadwork in any size and shape you desire. These algorithms could also be applied to other pixelated art forms like tile laying, embroidery, crochet, and quilts. We included projects like bracelets, pill pouches, pendants, beaded beads, and key chains. We also included a bunch of different grids that you can photocopy and color with markers.

Of course I’m biased, but I think it’s a really beautiful book. We included multiple colorful images on almost every page, 172 pages in all. It was a huge layout challenge, but Zelda nailed it. My original goal was to write 128 pages on how to use algorithms to make beaded jewelry, but the more we explored the space, the more we found. Not just millions of algorithms, the space of possibilities is infinite. So of course, we couldn’t include them all. But we used math and Roger’s custom software that he wrote for this project to help us find dozens of the easiest algorithms and more than a hundred more in increasing levels of complexity. We included all of our favorites. 1/2

The latest piece off my beading needles…
This beaded bead has the symmetry of a soccer ball and contains 810 seed beads. It measures 3 cm in diameter.
It has 32 holes, and it’s very hollow.
There’s only one and you can find it in my Etsy shop, gwenbeads. #bead #mathart #beadweaving

An green aventurine thumb stone put into a beaded netting bezel and strung together with matching rondelle beads, and 8/0 and 11/0 beads. The piece measures 18 inches, with plans of an extender chain/clasp the moment I can find my jump rings. 😅

Traditionally, aventurine symbolizes fortune and luck, and has been called a "gambling stone" in many circles. Funnily enough, I was finishing this necklace as one of my nephews was trying to defeat Aventurine on Honkai: Star Rail. 😂

A while back, I had the opportunity to get a free Potomac Beads kit during their holiday events last year, and I finally put it together.

The piece measures about 22 inches (56 cm), comprising of jet black fire polished glass beads of various sizes. Four mm bicones and 11/0 seed beads act as spacers between them. The original design doesn't call for the galvanized brass/gold bicones shown in the second picture, but I thought they would look good with the entire piece.

Many thanks to https://PotomacBeads.com for such a delightful project kit.

First finished project of 2024! Pattern is Carole Ohl's Pericón, available on Etsy. I felt the Red Pear colorway would be a great fit with the Antique Bronze finish of the Cymbal Lygia bail, and I was right! The rose gold crystal pearls add a bit of warmth and coordinate with the 11/0. All in all, a delightful piece.

It's #ArtAdventCalendar time again, huh? Well, let's start with this beauty.

So, a while back, I was looking through my collection of old beading magazines and discovered this beautiful medallion pendant. Had to search for the triangle beads, but I managed to get them.

I have plans on making a couple more for the holiday season.

The original pattern belongs to Margherita Fusco and can be found in the February 2017 edition of Bead and Button magazine.

Finally finished this beautiful necklace: Cindy Holsclaw's Opulent Octahedron Necklace. The pattern is found on her website, but I found it in the October/November '15 Beadwork Magazine.

Aztec gold CzechMates bars and Capri blue Preciousa 6mm bicones form the beaded beads. Iridescent dark blue Prestige crystal pearls of various sizes space between them while AB blue violet rondelle beads add a touch of sparkle. The entire piece is about 22 inches.

Price upon request.

I really love how this turned out. if I decide I have energy to sell my jewellery, I'll make at least one variation of this to sell.

Cranberry goldluster 11/0s, siam 3mm bicones (crystals), the little thing on the inside is called a "dragon scale" bead, with a rainbow/copper finish, and the long purple-y beads are called "dagger beads".

This fits like a choker with the dagger beads spreading out like a collar, and uses St Petersburg stitch. #MelindreaMakes #mastoart #beadweaving #jewelry

I have decided. I'm going to make several beaded rings to help my finger joints to not do "unhealthy finger joint stuff". Not sure I'll be getting one for each finger, but here's my first, a pinkie ring.

Yes, it is *really* hard to take a photo of a ring you're currently wearing >.>

This is a natural cabochon stone, with 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads to bezel it and create the band. #beadweaving #jewelry #MelindreaMakes

My first non-loom bead weaving project.

It's slow going, to say the least. But the repetitive tasks are good for my #mentalhealth so I am happy to make 18 failed projects before I get a decent one, heh.

I have been #beadweaving my entire adult life, with great stretches of time where my muse has left me. Here's some examples of the #peyotestitch I have created.
