Hi Allie I just finished beading the “Dahlia Petal Pendant.” I love it! The directions and the video tutorial are the perfect learning tools.

[@Potomacbeadco]

I know that once I make one and wear it to family functions, I’ll probably end up having to make a bunch, for all of my Aunts & cousins! This is just lovely and looks awesome on!

[@MistyxMarie.]

I'm obsessed I want to make 50 of theses great work Allie!

[@amichelemaher8201]

I look forward to your daily videos. They are just in time for my morning cup of tea and are an excellent bit of morning stimulation with the additional benefit of beauty and delight.

[@mm-ks3pr]

I really like that you wear the necklace. Sometimes its hard to get a sense of how the finished piece hangs and what size it is.

[@ansjeloef8770]

Allie you are very talented. What a gorgeous necklace. I have a neighbor and her name is Dahlia. Thank you for sharing this tutorial.

[@rhondajones6633]

So beautiful and a very clever design--the perfect circle component was a surprise--so much fun!! Thanks, Allie, for sharing this lovely design with us.

[@pstmartin1]

WOW amazing pendant you did a stunning job just love it

[@Potomacbeadco]

Thanks so much 😊

[@colleencarmichael3297]

Thanks Allie!! Lovely pendant!! You answered my question about smaller petal beads lol!!! I always preferred RAW over peyote for some reason and I love your use of the lacy netting over the rivoli. Gives it an unique finish!! I used those rings years ago. Great idea!

[@sherrycroft3166]

Wow!! Simply gorgeous! Your amazing Allie. Thanks for sharing .

[@BluV8ynes88]

I purchased the kit. I am so glad there is an actual step-by-step video tutorial here instead, I tried but just couldn’t understand the diagram in the instruction pamphlet it came with.

[@Potomacbeadco]

Thank you for your support! Glad the tutorial was helpful! A lot of people learn better watching a tutorial rather than reading a pattern, we totally get it!

[@lisapfeiffer4053]

That is really pretty. Can't wait to make one!

[@ellenschroeder6014]

So gorgeous, your work is awesome. I haven't missed any of your tutorials since I started beading. I would like to see a tutorial by you using the smaller Rose petals. Please and thank you!

[@Potomacbeadco]

We can make that happen. I will let the design team know.

[@Potomacbeadco]

You can also use a 35mm Perfect Circle ring in place of a 40mm by just adding 2 more seed beads!

[@BluV8ynes88]

What size seed beads and adding them where?

[@kfamily381]

Gorgeous

[@sylviafarina3471]

So beautiful

[@fuzzylop9164]

Beautiful I will be making this.

I am going to try to make this Allie! Thank you for such a great tutorial! Hugs!

[@jeremyk3484]

This is a Gorgeous piece, and wonderful design! Thanks for sharing!

[@michellegregersen9107]

This is really beautiful and I love the colourway. I have one technical question: when you showed sewing the petal bead on using the 11/0 then petal bead then 15/0 then back down through the petal bead I didn't see you go into that 11/0 again before moving over to the 8/0. But then when you added the second row of petal beads I saw you go back down into the 8/0 anchor bead. I wondered whether it was just a misstep or if we should be going back down into that anchor bead each time? Does the petal bead sit differently when you skip the anchor bead and continue on? Thanks for these videos!!

[@doggmopp]

Love this!

[@jessicae.8259]

Is there any news on what size ring and rivoli for the smaller petals? Thank you!

[@antonellavecchiettibijoux]

Se puoi essere utile, ho realizzato gli orecchini con cerchio da 30mm, petali da 8x7mm e rivoli da 14 con modifiche abbastanza semplici... Riescono e sono super belli... Comunque il tutorial è stratosferico!!!

[@CattyLoon]

What size Rivoli would be best for the smaller size? I want to make both. Several of both!

[@Potomacbeadco]

Allie is working on that, trying to find the best combination.

[@irmabresser9218]

With the smaller petals you could make earrings to go with the pendant

[@zoinks-yq4vp]

If you used the smaller petal beads, what size ring would be best?

[@Potomacbeadco]

Allie is working on that at the moment.

[@zoinks-yq4vp]

@@Potomacbeadco looking forward to the info😁

[@dariazajac3496]

It would be great if you could try to turn it into a brooch. I always struggle with adding a pin to work, and this beautiful flower could be awsome as a brooch.

[@Potomacbeadco]

Hi Daria, you can buy brooch findings and stitch or glue them to the back of your work to make a brooch.

[@kajira63]

Can you use any narrow 40mm metal circle. Its just I really want to make this, am only missing the ring and am not ready to place an order. Postage is so expensive to Oz :)

[@Potomacbeadco]

You should be able to make one with 20 ga or 18 ga wire.

[@kajira63]

@@Potomacbeadco thank you, that's great. I've actually just ordered from you so will have something to compare mine to !!

[@donatelladelmonte8425]

Goodmorning, thank you for the tutorial. It's very very beautifull. I have a small problem with the second row of petals, in my pendant there is 6 petals instead of 9 like your. You can help me please? I don't understand that part of tutorial.

[@maryajohnson2500]

Are you separating them by 4 beads instead of 3 beads?

[@Barbs44Travels]

Anxiously waiting for Rivoli size to use with the smaller petals. You've been out of stock on the correct size of petals, so I ordered the smaller size and got the smaller ring but still don't know what size Rivoli to use. I know you are working on this per notes below but my daughter's birthday is approaching and I would love to make this for her. Also wondering if I should use different sized seed beads.

[@joannhorrisberger8083]

I'm thinking I would still use an 18mm rivoli. Two reasons: 1. Allie didn't suggest changing the size of the rivoli and 2. The space between the petals would be the same regardless of petal size, since the distance is controlled by the "top" side of each square. (Only the left and right side are changed by the use of one size 8 seed bead instead of two.)

[@Barbs44Travels]

@@joannhorrisberger8083 Thanks for your input, just need to figure out size of the ring now.

[@joannhorrisberger9699]

@@Barbs44Travels I added the rivoli before the ring because I didn’t have the ring yet. It was tricky getting the Rivoli to stay because the opening did not keep the circle shape as I worked on it. If I did it again, I would place the piece flat on a small tray or Lazy Susan so I could rotate it without losing my perfect circle as I worked. When you have added the Rivoli, turn the piece oven and measure from the centerpoint of the rivoli to the far side of the hole on one of the pedals in the bottom row. Double that measurement for ring size. Please let me know how it works out. Happy beading!

[@Barbs44Travels]

@@joannhorrisberger9699 So great to have someone else do the thinking for me. Don't know how soon I can get to this because caretaker for Alzheimers patient husband but now I have a starting point. Tkx so much.

[@TheBizWizz]

Okay what did I do wrong please? I ordered all the exact kit of beads from the USA to England and made this tonight. Only took me about 6 hours. I'm very new. But . . . My Crystal fell right through the back? I will remake this whole thing, just coz I loved it, but can't see what went wrong? I got pikkies!

[@sueswayzee8674]

How many petals are in a package? IOW, do I need to order just one package or two?

[@courtneybailey8563]

I really like this, but I’m struggling. White thread on a white mat with gold beads is hard to see and follow.

[@Potomacbeadco]

we will take note of this and thank you so much for letting us know! If you need any assistance please feel free to contact us!

[@courtneybailey8563]

Thank you. I wasn’t trying to be rude, and I hope no one thought I was. I really appreciate Allie and everyone at Potomac Beads. I can’t imagine the work it takes to create just one video. Thank you all very much for all you do.

[@sheilawillert]

A statement piece pendant. Thanks

[@debrarudolph8911]

So pretty but I just couldn't sew it. I tried three times. I'll just have to get better at beading.
