If you're looking for a new and interesting bead weaving project, look no further than the PotomacBeads tutorial for Madrigal Earrings. These earrings are made using a basic brick stitch that is suitable for all skill levels. They are great for casual wear or dressing up for a more formal look.
Using about four feet of thread, pick up a 6mm Round bead and thread through it four times. Add two seed beads and tuck the needle underneath the strands of beads on the round. Pick up one seed bead at a time, bringing the thread underneath the bridge thread. Go the whole way around the round bead. Once you're finished with the first row, sew down into bead one, bring the needle underneath the bridge thread again and back up through beed number one. Do a second row of seed beads.
Make a third row with 8/0s and then complete a fourth row with the 11s. Begin the exterior of the design by sewing on groups of 11/0, 8/0 and 11/0. This will create a sundial look. Watch the Madrigal Earrings tutorial to complete the exterior.
Add a row of seed beads out the top and put the 8mm round bead and wireguard on the end. Reinforce the thread by going back around the outside. Tie off the thread ends and burn down. Add on the earwire.
These beautiful Madrigal earrings are so much fun to bead! You can make a pair in each of the suggested colorways, or mix and match to create your own unique look. PotomacBeads has everything you need to make these earrings, including the beads, findings, and instructions. So gather your supplies and get ready to have some fun!
