You can buy Deb Roberti's "SuperDuo Tile Bracelet & Earrings" pattern HERE at Around the Beading Table. Note that Deb's pattern does not call for any 8/0 seed beads. I changed the top of my earrings to accommodate jump rings to attach the earring wires. I also used groups of three accent color seed beads on the outer edge instead of four beads because they fit the space better.

The SuperDuo colors that I used are difficult to get to look right in photos, especially the violet ones. Those beads are a pretty "dusty" purple color and the turquoise ones have specks of almost the same color purple on them. They really do go perfectly together. Below are some swatches to give you a better idea of the colors:

Claire Lee from Supply Emporium has a new bracelet pattern called "Cali Ovals Bracelet". You can buy her pattern HERE on Etsy. Claire also has some bead packs available for this bracelet as well as Cali beads. You can also buy Cali beads at Queen City Bead on Etsy, Potomac Bead Company and Red Panda Beads.
The pattern shows how to add a button and loop clasp but I opted to use 8/0 seed beads on the ends and jump rings on mine.
As you can see, I only made five motifs this time because six is too many for my six inch wrist. To make it fit, I added an extra "bridge" on each end as well as an extra jump ring for the clasp. Since I used Toho seed beads to make today's bracelet, they likely made it slightly longer than if I had used Miyuki beads. It remains to be seen if I will need to make any other tweaks to make my two previous bracelets fit because I made both of them with Miyuki seed beads.

Just like yesterday's bracelet, this one came out too big for my six inch wrist. Six motifs will fit a 6 1/2" to 6 3/4" wrist depending on the beads that are used.

Today's bracelet came out too big for my six inch wrist so I will have to remake it with just five motifs and adjust the length with extra beads and jump rings on the ends. Six motifs will fit a 6 1/2" to 6 3/4" wrist depending on the beads that are used.
