Last night, after many nights of practice—I did it! What a proud moment, it was beautiful, delicate, sparkly! I must admit, it was a challenge but I kept at it. As soon as I learned the repetition of the pattern design, it all made sense! It was so fulfilling. I used ruby swarovskis, 3 m.m., & miyukis, 24 kt.rose gold. It has an antique look to it. Only one thing—Eri, do you have another suggestion for making it wearable? I didn’t have on-hand what you suggested for a chain & thought I could add a ring through the top. The top of the heart is not designed for this & adding rings of various sizes did not help it hang correctly—it was off-centered. Does any one have any ideas? Thanks, ymv

I had a hard time with this..but I finished it…using fireline. It worked well. Can you make the 2 sides separate..like the snowflake pattern. My problem came with the second side of the heart..I guess I will try 2 sides and connect them..and see if it is stiff enough! Thank you Eri..you have truly inspired me!

Hi Eri,
I made my comment on Jennifer’s Van Benschoten site but I would like to thank you personally for making flower heart available for free. I made 2 of them, one for myself and one for my daughter. My daughter likes it and wears it to her clinic. At first I had a hard time following the instructions but thru repetition, it wasn’t difficult at all. I am a fan of your site. Thanks again.

Hi Annie.

I checked the video and it appears to be working OK. When that happens it usually means your ISP or your computer are having trouble processing the bandwidth the video requires. The best thing to do is restart your computer and try again.

Thanks!
Eri

I love the Flower Heart necklace video, but the second one stops right after you turn the heart over. You get several beads picked up, and the 4mm bead, passing the two threads through the same bead, then it just stops.
I love your site, and am so happy to have found you.
