About Me
- Oksana Starzhynska
- My blog's main subjects are sewing, the thing in which I am experienced the most, and beadwork, which is, in fact, pushed me into blogging. I am also engaged in knitting and crocheting. All together they are the set of skills which I use to make my wardrobe my whole life. These are not my only interests, I also like the English language (that's one of the reasons that my blog is bilingual), try to travel around my country and abroad (when can afford it), am interested in art (to the degree of a dilettante but nevertheless) and adore the people who can create anything beautiful or useful whatever it is :-) So welcome to a needlecrafter diary!

Half Tila Bracelet, or On Waves of Stubbornness
Half tila beads are, let's say, one of the less unavailable among the other unavailable so I used them again after my first experience with the earrings and the pendant. The pattern by Miyuki Bead is from Bead&Button magazine, June 2015.
I made the bracelet twice. First time I beaded on fishing line because thought the bracelet would be... fluffier as the waves are quite delicate indeed. But I didn't like the stiffness of the ready piece. Besides, I made it too short because after the first rope was made, it was longer than my usual bracelet so I made less repeats of the pattern.
So the second time I used the thread, made the pattern in full and this time liked the result much better. Beading two stripes took me less than 5 g of half tilas so I added one more green stripe. These last two stripes were beaded in the same way as the first four, without changing the sample.
