Dianne created her own Sunflower Outburst Bracelet pattern using BeadTool 4.

Dianne created her own Sunflower Outburst Bracelet pattern using BeadTool 4.

I love this new program, the BeadTool 4! I can "paint" forever and never tire of creating new designs to bead.

I love the ease of use and all the different formats to print in.

I have done some geometric designs and now am beginning to "paint".

I created this Sunflower bracelet using this program, then added a flower on top for some pizazz.


Dianne wove her sunflower bracelet entirely by hand
- one little Delica bead at a time.


I loved it so much I am going to do a whole series of different flowers. I have already designed a beautiful Poinsettia for my Christmas line.

When I first began "beading" I swore I would never sew beads - and here I am stitching away and having a blast.

I have learned never to limit myself when it comes to creating!

Incredible beadwork!
by: Rena

How fun, Dianne - and your Sunflower Outburst design is awesome! Placing the 3-dimensional sunflower on top was a great touch.

How long did it take you to design this piece - and also how long to actually make it after you had the design mapped out?

Thanks for sharing this cool beading tool and your fab bracelet!

Sewing with Beads!

I didn't think I would ever sew with beads! I was looking for something different and gave it a try. Wow! I am now hooked! Just doing peyote now, but looking forward to learning new stitches!

Wow!!!!!!

Absolutely stunning! I'm checking out the software now.

The 3-D addition of the flower is the perfect touch. Excellent work! Thanks for sharing the new find!
