Free Beading Pattern - Liz Band


"Liz Band" is a variation of Teejay's "Lizbeth Band", which is also a free pattern. Instead of the little arches of seed beads on each motif, the beads form points. While making some new colorways in preparation for the release of this pattern, I discovered that the new Mini DiamonDuos work just as well as SuperDuos. I blogged about it HERE. All of the bracelets in this post were made a few years ago. 

As I did with "Lizbeth", I will post some new colorways a day at a time over the next week or so. You'll find the download link at the bottom of this post.


  • 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (D4222)
  • 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (D4222)
  • 11/0 seed beads Toho "Higher Metallic Matte Blue Haze" (512F)
  • SuperDuo beads "Gold Matte"
  • 3mm fire polished beads "Champagne"

I came up with this color combination by accident while trying something and I love it. Who would have thought that mixing silver with gold could look so pretty? The colors blend together and give the bracelet a dreamy look that I love.
