Seville Bracelet by Julie Bean
Beautiful Bracelet with a very good tutorial

This bracelet caught my eye as it simply looked very beautiful in the picture. I watched the tutorial for a bit to see if I would be able to understand it and it is so well done, without rushing, that I made 2 bracelets!
I had to look thru my "stash" to find the right sized beads and ended up with Christmas type colors and 2 people are getting these for a gift.
Thank you for an excellent tutorial. It does make a difference.

A fast, gorgeous design well worth making!

I made 3 of these in different color combinations and get lots of positive comments on them when I wear them. Unlike a lot of the weaving I choose to do this project was quick to complete. I did go with a lobster claw clasp rather than a magnetic one because in my personal experience the magnetic ones come apart every time the bracelet gets bumped and I'm a clumsy person, though to be fair I may have never tried this particular magnetic clasp. Welcome back, Julie - I love your fresh designs! Keep 'em coming!
