Feebie Pattern Friday Little Frenchies Charms/Earrings 8-24-2018

Hey there! Sorry I haven't posted any free patterns in a while, but life often gets in the way.... and I really thought summer was going to be my chance to relax! I haven't done much beading at all. I didn't even touch my tapestry or the beaded box... just too much going on and when there is too much going on, even if I'm not the one running around, the impact of everyone else makes me make mistakes in my beading. On small projects, that isn't too bad because it's easy to fix, but on the bigger projects it is a bigger deal.

So, here are my Little Frenchies.... 2 different sizes, you choose the one you like best! Anyway, feel free to change up the colors and I would love to see what you create with them.  Remember, you don't have to stick with just charms or earrings, you can glue them onto magnets, attach to a tie pin, sew them onto clothing, etc.

If you want the featured free pattern, you just have to do ONE thing:

1. Send me an email so that I can email the PDF to you... the comments form on my blog DOES NOT give me your email address... without your email address, I cannot send it. The contact form is located at the top of the page. Now, if you would like to leave a comment on my blog, well, that is just gravy and I would certainly appreciate it... Feel free to comment on whether you like the pattern or not or if you have a blog I should check out, or how you use the patterns. 

What Is Not Included:

• Directions for peyote stitch are not included... there are plenty of sources online for that by people who are better teachers than I.
• The Word pattern is not included because it is a relatively simple project and the color chart should be more than enough.
• Adobe Reader for viewing the PDF file

 

*** If you use my pattern, please be kind and give me the credit as the designer, ie beaded by Dana Shmoe and Designed by 3 Peeps Designs.  I don't mind if you sell your completed project for bead money, but I want design credit. Why do I want design credit? Well, I do still sell some of my patterns and I use the money to buy beads. It isn't a business, it is for fun ie funding my beading habit. Seeing my designs in your shop (or anywhere else) without the design credit takes all of the fun away... and I will take steps to have the photo removed.. This is fun, I'm trying to be charitable, and I design a lot more than I have a chance to bead... and I know there are others who don't like to design, but do enjoy beading. As soon as Free Pattern Friday stops being fun, I will stop doing it.

 *** And just because I am offering my patterns for free does not mean you can just pass it around to your friends. Please, have them come to my blog and comment, etc in order to get their own copy.  * I know most of you don't need to be reminded of beady etiquette, but some of you do and I'm just trying to keep it real.

I apologize for not having some sort of automatic download of the pattern on the blog, but I don't know how to do it and I don't want to learn right now. I like the interaction that commenting and then sending an email requires. If you're on Facebook, send me a friend request! I'm trying to fill my FB feed up with beadwork rather than anything too serious.
