Eight




I daresay Clio's starting to look like a digital native:

Square number eight continues our Primer Puss collection for August. I love the way the ribbons of color float above the field of concentric squares. This background works because it's made up of four colors, in a favorite pattern style of mine. Rather than black-black, white-white to get the effect of stripes, it's metallic-black, clear-white, in that order. The metallic and clear act in a way as half-tones, softening the zig-zag edge of the usual peyote stitch stripe. Because of their reflective and refractive surfaces, they break up the visual plane of that pattern, too, which allows the bold bands of color to hover.


Primer Puss kits are still available in the Shop! That's our Primer colorway with a free full-size tube of Sour Puss added in. 

This is the second of five Primer Puss squares we'll be featuring for the month of August. The squares are made of size 11 Delica beads, edged with size 15 rocailles.

As always, the basic Warped Square threadpath can be viewed HERE.

She's super interested!
