Mastering St Petersburg

St Petersburg is a stitch I have wanted to learn for some time now. I have always been a little hesitant to try the stitch as it just always looked so difficult and time consuming!

I mentioned this to a friend of mine at my latest bead meet in December and she was kind enough to teach me. I have to say I was really surprised at how quick and easy it was to learn.

So here are the first two pieces I have created. I managed to stitch my second piece in just under 2 hours!

My first piece is a simple bracelet stitched in gorgeous matte black and root beer seeds.


My second piece has been stitched with my favourite bead at the moment - topaz lined seafoam with matching drop beads and gorgeous bronze beads.
